Red clover

Trifolium pratense

Aerial parts

Red clover is a herbaceous perennial native to Europe, Western Asia and North-West Africa, now widely cultivated throughout the world. It belongs to the Fabaceae family and is distinguished by its pink-purple flowers.

Traditionally used in herbal medicine to treat a variety of ailments, red clover contains isoflavones, which are thought to have similar effects to oestrogen, making it popular in treatments related to the menopause and bone health.

In addition to these uses, red clover is used in agriculture as a fodder plant for livestock and as a green manure, improving soil quality by fixing nitrogen.

An interesting aspect of red clover is its role in supporting biodiversity, as a valuable source of nectar for bees and other pollinators.
