[Clovers: The Genus Trifolium in Mt. Adams Country]

This photo shows a close-up view of the involucral bracts of cup clover as seen at a small, vernally moist meadow at about 2800' along Rd K6000 on the southeastern slopes of Mt. Adams.........July 10, 2005. Note the glabrous involucre subtending the head of flowers. The involucre is deeply cleft and has deeply spinulose margins. Sorry, I did not get a shot of any leaves!
