Description, use, and varietal differences of rose clover in Western Australia.

ROSE CLOVER is a native of Asia Minor and the Mediterranean region.

Until recently, it was used only as a sown pasture in California.

Its commercial use dates back to 1949, after five years of range plot trials (Love and Sumner), but even though the species has been in commercial use for 16 years, no attempt seems to have been made to develop uniform lines from the very mixed seed in common use.
