White clover is a shallow-rooted winter perennial legume that spreads by stolons or above-ground runners. The white clover plant has compound leaves divided into three leaflets, which are all joined at a central point and originate at the nodes along the stems. White clover is adapted to many soils but tends to grow best in soils that are moist and low in nitrogen. The flowers are an aggregate of 20 to 40 individual flowers. They are white in color, although some have a light pink tint. White clover flowers from May through September.
