Trifolium incarnatum, commonly known as crimson clover, is a species of clover native to Europe and Asia. It is characterized by its vibrant red flowers and is often used as a cover crop due to its ability to fix nitrogen in the soil, improving soil fertility. The plant typically grows to a height of 12 to 30 inches and blooms in late spring to early summer. Crimson clover is also beneficial for pollinators, attracting bees and other insects. It is often planted in agricultural fields and gardens to enhance biodiversity and prevent soil erosion. Additionally, Trifolium incarnatum can be used as forage for livestock, providing nutritious feed.
