 It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog!  This flower has been very prolific in my area this year.  It is Wild Alfalfa.  It is a native legume and is very drought hardy as it's roots can grow to 10 feet deep.  It resembles Alfalfa but livestock do not particularly like it unless it is cured in prairie hay.

  1. I wonder if livestock avoid "normal" alfalfa in the same way
