Violet clover is perfect in gardening for borders or pots, as well as houseplants! It is also a nitrogen fixer, favoring the grass to grow around it.
Perennial herbaceous, very variable in height from 10-60 cm. Oval, green leaves with a characteristic pale crescent in the center of the upper surface. Dark pink flowers, somewhat paler at the base.
Direct sowing at temperatures of 8ºC night/15ºC day. Lightly cover the seeds and maintain the humidity until germination is completed.
