On
the open common and amongst the turf of cliff tops this little
plant provides bright patches of colour throughout the summer.
The popular name Trefoil is misleading, for the leaf is divided
into five, not three, leaflets. The stems are branching, usually
prostrate, and up to about a foot in length. The pea-shaped flowers
grow in heads of from two to six. They are yellow, tinted or tipped
with red.
