Subterranean Clover
Trifolium subterraneum
Trifolium subterraneum, the subterranean clover (often shortened to sub clover), is a species of clover native to northwestern Europe, from Ireland east to Belgium. The plant's name comes from its underground seed development (geocarpy), a characteristic not possessed by other clovers.
