trifolium

noun

Etymology

From the genus name.

Definitions

  1. Any of the genus Trifolium of clovers and trefoils.

    • The larger species (Panax quinquefolium) is rather coarse and ordinary in its appearance; the flowers are very nearly like those of the trifolia, but grow in an irregular and elongated cluster.
    • The majority of the trifoliums are native to Europe and Asia. Only comparatively few of the trifoliums native to the United States are of food production significance.
