TR1F&L1UM, Linn. From tres, three, and folium,

 the English trefoil, or clover. Linn. 17, Or. 

 4 Nat Or. Fabay.ce. The white, red, and 

 yellow clover are among the most valuable 

 herbage plants adopted in European agricul- 

 ture. Lueem has been recommended as supe- 

 rior to clover, and saintfoin and various other 



leguminous plants have been highly extolled ; 

 yet the red clover for mowing, and the white 

 for pasturage, far excel all other plants in 

 these respects. All the species thrive in com- 

 mon garden soil, and many of them, 'being 

 very showy, are well suited for ornamenting 

 the flower-borders. The perennial kinds are 

 readily increased by dividing the plants at the 

 root in spring, or by seeds. The seeds of the 

 annual and biennial kinds only require sowing 

 in the open border. Those species marked 

 frame and greenhouse, require protection only 

 in winter. Synonymes; 1, T. Cupdni; 2, T.
