Hands-Free Spring Success
No skill required to grow this. Sooner or later, it finds its way into most gardens without human assistance and thrives easily with a bit of sun and water run-off from the irrigation of other plants. Bees visit it and the roots fix nitrogen in the soil, which can benefit other plants.
When I was a child, I found a stem of clover in my mother's garden bearing the legendarily lucky four leaves. I pressed it and carried it in a waxed paper envelope in my wallet for several years until the wallet was lost. It didn't seem so lucky then.
