Rabbit-Foot Clover (Trifolium arvense)
This past weekend, in a grassy space near the parking lot at Chambers Creek Properties' Central Meadow in University Place, WA, my children spotted a flower that we hadn't seen before. The flower was a delicate pink color. When we touched it, we were surprised to feel how soft it was!
When I looked it up at home, I found that it's a type, or species, of clover that is native to Europe. It's name is "rabbit-foot clover," due to the plant's soft, fuzzy flowers. Aren't they pretty?
