White clover, scientifically known as Trifolium repens, is a perennial flowering plant commonly found in lawns, meadows, and pastures. It features small, white, ball-shaped flower clusters and has three leaflets that are often heart-shaped. This plant is valued for its ability to fix nitrogen in the soil, improving soil fertility.
White clover is also a vital food source for various pollinators, including bees. It thrives in well-drained soils and can tolerate a range of conditions, making it a popular choice for ground cover. Additionally, it is often used in livestock grazing systems due to its high nutritional value.
