This temperate clover species can easily be identified by the shape of its leaves, pointed like an arrow. This hard-seeded type is mainly used in Mediterranean areas with very mild winters. Arrowleaf clover is adapted to acid-neutral soils and can be used for cutting and light grazing. It starts quite slow, having its main production in spring. Therefore Arrowleaf clover should be used in mixtures with more winter-active legume species.
