####*%†~-¨ blood clover is in its dormant state ¨-~†%*####
#*%%†-¨¨¨¨ indistinguishable from regular clover. ¨¨¨¨-†%%*#
#*%%††-¨¨¨ when disturbed, it produces a thick ¨¨¨-††%%*#
####*%†~-¨ sticky sap that will ensnare animals ¨-~†%*####
####*%†~-¨ that are too weak to move away (frogs, ¨-~†%*####
##%~¨¨¨¨¨¨ mice, insects) and slowly melt them. ¨¨¨¨¨¨~%##
####*%†~-¨ the plant then feeds off of the ¨-~†%*####
#*%††-¨¨¨¨ nutrients released. during feeding the ¨¨¨¨-††%*#
#%%~-¨¨¨¨¨ leaves will take on a reddish tint, ¨¨¨¨¨-~%%#
####*%†~-¨ from which the plant get its common ¨-~†%*####
####*%†~-¨ name. ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨-~†%*####
