Prairie Clover (Dalea purpurea)

Prairie Clover

Prairie clovers are an excellent addition to native plant gardens and wildflower meadows. They attract butterflies, bees, and other pollinators, and their deep taproots help to improve soil drainage and fertility.  Prairie clovers are also nitrogen-fixing plants, which means that they can take nitrogen from the air and convert it into a form that can be used by other plants. This helps to improve the overall health of the soil.
