White Sweet-Clover Journal Entry

The White Sweet-Clover is within the Melilot group. Some other kinds of Clovers in the Melilot group include Red Clover, Large head Clover, Hare's foot Clover, and Brown moor Clover. The scientific name for Clover is Trifolium. All of my observations have the same type of location and relatively the same stem. They are all located within a bush or grass and they all have stems within the range of 10 inches to 20 inches. Nitrogen fixation is unique to the White Sweet-Clover (relative to my other observations). The Clover takes Nitrogen from the air and converts it into ammonia in the soil to promote its growth and reproduction.
