Gulf Shores State Park Wildflower and Plant Identification Guide

Wild White Clover, also known as Carolina Clover, is a native clover that forms a prostrate mat across the ground. The Trifolium genus name comes from the compound leaves composed of three leaflets, and very rarely the elusive flour leaf clover may be found. The leaves are hairy and blooms can vary in color from white, bluish, or lavender.
