Flora of Cornwall (1999)

The descriptive text, below the map, is from the Flora of Cornwall (1999), which was a Tetrad Atlas (the maps had 2km square dots or Tetrads). The map on this web page depicts the plant's distribution at the 1km square scale and shows the records made pre-2000 which were used in the 1999 Flora and those made since.

Trifolium bocconei - Twin-flowered Clover



Twin-headed Clover is a Red Data Book species restricted in Britain to the Lizard Peninsula. It is found both on cliff slopes and around rocky outcrops as at Caerthillian (SW61W), Predannack Wollas (SW61T), and near Cadgwith (SW71H).
