Medicago polymorpha is
an annual or biennial herb originating in Europe and naturalized in
various districts in the Edo period. The basal parts of the stems
crawl on the ground, growing to a height of 10-60cm. Leaves comprise
three obovate leaflets 1-2cm long and 0.5-1.5cm wide. Stipules cut
in deeply like the teeth of a comb, and flowers, yellow, 4-5mm long,
set themselves some at leaf axils. Legumes wind themselves in
whorls, 5-6mm in diameter, spirally, with prickles like hooks on
margins. Bloom time: March-May. |
