Melilotus Gorkemii
''Melilotus'', known as melilot or sweet clover is a genus of legumes in the family Fabaceae, native to Europe, Asia, and Africa. The genus is closely related to ''Trifolium'' (clovers). Several species are common grassland plants and weeds of cultivated ground, and some species are now found worldwide as naturalised plants. The scientific and English names both derive from Greek ''melílōtos'' from ''méli'' (honey), and ''lōtos'' ( lotus), via Latin ''melilōtos'' and Old French ''mélilot''. The alternative name "sweet clover" varies in orthography, also cited as sweet-clover and sweetclover. Other names include "kumoniga", from the Cumans.Bulgarian Folk Customs, Mercia MacDermott, pg 27 Description The species are annual, biennial, or perennial herbaceous plants, growing to 50–150 cm tall, with trifoliate leaves similar to clover but narrower, the leaflets only about half as wide as long, and with a serrated margin; each leaf also has two small basal stipules. The flowe ...
