White Clover is a smooth plant with creeping stems that send up long-stalked leaves and separate leafless, flowering stalks. The heads are globose, 3/4 to 1 inch in diameter, with white flowers sometimes tinged with pink. The leaflets are more or less elliptic, 3/4 inch long, with a pale V-shaped mark near the middle.
