Desmodium Adscendens Var. Trifoliastrum

Climbing velvet bean, scientifically known as Desmodium adscendens var. trifoliastrum, is a leguminous plant native to tropical regions of South America. It is characterized by its vigorous climbing habit and dense foliage covered in soft, velvety hairs. This plant thrives in warm, humid climates and is often found in disturbed soils and along forest edges. Its trifoliate leaves and small, pale yellow flowers make it easily identifiable in the wild. Due to its rapid growth and nitrogen-fixing capabilities, it has both ecological and agricultural significance.
