§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨§§  indistinguishable from regular clover.  §§¨¨§¨¨§¨§

¨§§¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ sticky sap  that  will  ensnare  animals ¨§§§¨¨§¨¨§
¨§§§¨¨¨¨¨¨ that are too weak to move  away  (frogs, ¨§¨§§¨¨§¨¨

§¨¨§¨§§¨¨¨  nutrients released. during feeding the  ¨¨¨¨¨§§§¨¨
¨§¨¨¨§§§¨¨ leaves  will  take  on  a reddish  tint, ¨¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨
