Talk:Trifolium hybridum

Toxicity[edit]

Need mention of toxicity to horses and I believe other livestock – it can cause photosensitivity on white areas of skin, and liver damage. See for example [1].Richard New Forest (talk) 09:56, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Trifolium hybridum, also known as the alsike clover, is a species of flowering plant in the pea family Fabaceae. The stalked, pale pink or whitish flower head grows from the leaf axils, and the trifoliate leaves are unmarked. The plant is up to 40 centimetres (1.3 ft) tall, and is found in fields and on roadsides – it is also grown as fodder (hay or silage). It blooms from spring to autumn. Originating in mainland Europe, it has become established as an introduced plant in the British Isles. This T. hybridum flower was photographed in Keila, Estonia.
