Crimson clover, or Italian clover, Trifolium incarnate, is new to me! I had never seen it before until we walked into a field at the start of a walk yesterday, and dotted through the grasses along the field margin was a scattering of wine red flower spikes. Immediately captivated, I went a bit overboard on photographing the flower and identified it once we were home. It is a plant used for green manure, but before it reaches that stage it is a very handsome wild flower!
Welcome to the running wave, which I set up as a vehicle for my photographs, with some observational chat and occasionally a little writing. I hope you enjoy the things I enjoy, sharing my walks with Tilly and Ted, and other excursions I have from time to time.
Its very pretty....such a gorgeous colour xx
