Myles Standish State Forest, Plymouth
Among bush-clovers there are herbs as well as semi-shrubs.
The alien semi-shrubby bush-clover introduced from East Asia
has become abundant at a gas-line clearing on the reservation territory.
Taking over spruce asters, little bluestem, and scrub oaks, it produces
flowers and fruit in profusion. Photo credit Luba Batuner
