Trifolium Striatum Var. Atlanticum
Trifolium striatum var. atlanticum is a rare and striking variant of the common clover found primarily in coastal regions of the eastern United States. This plant is notable for its distinctive silver-green foliage and unique stipules that set it apart from other clover species. It thrives in sandy, well-drained soils and is often found along the edges of dunes and salt marshes. Due to its limited range and specific habitat requirements, it is considered a vulnerable species. Conservation efforts are crucial to preserving this fascinating plant for future generations.
