Product Description
Bird's Foot Trefoil Seeds - Lotus corniculatus
Bird’s Foot Trefoil – or Birds Foot Trefoil – is an extremely resilient perennial wildflower that is a staple of most wildflower meadows. Attractive for sure, but hardly glamorous, this lovely flower is typically valued more as a reliable member of the chorus, than as a star performer. Its most laudable value lies in its ability to provide consistent color at an affordable price.

Sunny outlook!
I'm definitely ordering more of these! The shipment was fast, and the product arrived in wonderful condition. I shared these with another "Green Thumb " enthusiast, and she has contacted me twice to see how she might get some more of these. Very pleased!

No - this is not a weed!
It is actually a very pretty flower. Little petals, dainty flower. Makes a good show when planted in abundance.
