Clover is a low-growing perennial, native to northwest Africa, Asia, and Europe. It has since been naturalized and cultivated in many parts of the world, including North America. The flower heads are collected in full bloom during the summer months.

Druids believed that it could ward off evil spells and witches, while Medieval Christians believed that three-lobed leaves were associated with the trinity and four-lobed leaves with the cross.

Can be used as flowers and sometimes the leaves and flowers together in teas, capsules, and extracts. Clover is often cultivated as a fodder crop and may also be tilled for green manure. It makes a wonderful ingredient in herbal tea, adding a light, sweet flavor along with its abundant medicinal properties. It may be integrated into a salve or balm and is traditionally used to support healthy skin. In some clinical trials, Clover has been shown to support healthy menopause by reducing symptoms.
