Red Clover
(Trifolium Pratense)
The 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago inspired the state flower movement. Vermonters set about choosing their floral emblem the next year. English colonists brought red clover to the New World.Today, red clover grows just about everywhere in Vermont, including forested areas that aren’t too shady. Through the ages, many different peoples have considered clovers magic, and four-leaf clovers especially so. Clover brought plenty of luck to Vermont’s dairy and honey industries. Without clover, Vermont’s honeybees couldn’t produce the light, flavorful honeys Vermont is noted for. Red clover certainly didn’t need the bumblebee to tip the scales in its favor. It handily won the state flower vote, with 9,575 votes. The red clover was adopted as Vermont’s state flower on November 9, 1894.
