message: The main page of this article would be improved if someone posted a picture of the seed of the clover.   The article says it is leguminous, so I will assume that that means, a typical clover plant produces a pod similar to the pod in the common string bean, or pea.   Maybe with two or three seeds in it, I don't know.   The article doesn't say.   So, does the seed of the common clover have the same appearance as a bean, or pea, or even peanut?   How long does it take for clover seed to germinate?   Most of the clover plants I have seen, have three leaves.   (They are "trifoliate.")   Do all three seeds sprout from the stem at the same time, or do two of the leaves sprout first, and then the third, later?   The main page of this article needs more information to answer these questions.   If you can't find a reference to cite, be bold anyway.   216.99.219.70 (talk) 21:05, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

I think the bird's foot trefoil image is misplaced.  If I'm looking at the same species it is Lotus corniculatus not a Trifolium.  Can anyone confirm? -- sannse (talk) 18:58, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)

text: One of the most recent of useful discoveries in agriculture is to mix layers of green or new cut clover with layers of straw in ricks or stacks; thus the strength of the clover is absorbed by the straw, which, thus impregnated, both horses and cattle eat greedily, and the clover is dried and prevented from heating. This practice is particularly calculated for second crops of clover and rye-grass.

message: This page has a very obvious British bias (because it was taken from Encyclopædia Britannica) and needs to talk more about clovers in other parts of the world. The way this article is written, it almost seems as if clovers are found only in the British Isles. SCHZMO ✍ 15:16, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. With it being EB stuff a lot is also very dated; I'll try and go over it and junk the worst, and split off some of the rest into individual species articles, over the next few days - MPF 00:12, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The plants in the Muir Woods picture look a lot like Oxalis. Does anyone know which species of Trifolium they are supposed to be? --Tjunier 12:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

message: According to a site about the movie Cloverfield, it was named so because after dropping a bomb, clovers usually grow in the area. Truth or not? If not, should this be in the superstitions?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.240.3 (talk) 17:09, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You would probably also get fire ants (if they're living in the area). Certain species grow in disturbed (i.e. construction sites, blast sites) areas better than others. I think the quote itself, if it comes from a good enough source, might be noteworthy on the Cloverfield page, referring to the reason for the title (or myths about the title; I'm not really familiar with the movie or its hype), but here I don't think it's important to note unless there was a significant study done to that effect (you know: soil conditions about bomb blasts and their suitability for certain plant species, ecological impact analysis, etc.). Interesting thought, though. Garnet avi (talk) 00:38, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Is it safe to smoke clover?? I've heard it is good as a subsitute for tobacco.

message: The genus is described as "originating in Europe".  Under Uses it says " Native Americans ate the plants raw and cooked, drying and smoking the roots."  By using the past tense it is perhaps suggesting from antiquity.  Some elaboration on what is meant by "originating in Europe" and in what geologic time period it is thought to have originated and how and in what time periods it is thought to have spread might be appropriate.Ealtram (talk) 02:32, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
