4, Nat. Or. Fahàceoe. The white, red, and
yellow clover are among the most valuable
herbage plants adopted in European agriculture.
Lueern has been recommended as superior
to clover, and saintfoin and various other
TRI
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 common
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.
