100 Red Clover Seeds Trifolium pratense Wildflower Pollinator Cottage Garden
Red clover is a hardy perennial wildflower known for its rounded crimson-pink flower heads and distinctive three-leaf foliage. It brings a cheerful, natural look to meadows, borders, and cottage-style gardens and is a familiar sight across temperate landscapes.
Often used in wildflower mixes, pollinator gardens, and lawn alternatives, red clover adds color and texture through the growing season. It works well in informal plantings and mixed borders, and the dried flower heads are sometimes used in floral crafts.
