Rabbit-foot clover is native to Europe and western Asia. Its soft, fuzzy flowerheads, the reason for its common names, are unlike those of other clovers. Identification: Plants are 4-16" (10-40 cm) tall. Leaves are in groups of 3. Leaflets are narrow, ⅜-¾" (1-2 cm) × ¹/₁₆-³/₁₆" (3-5 mm), sometimes with small hairs and fine serrations. Flowers are soft, composed of silken hairs, oval-shaped flowerheads ⅜-1" (1-3 cm) × ⅜-½" (1-1.5 cm). They appear pale pink from a distance; up close, white hairs are tinged with pink.
