Trifolium plant named ‘Coretta Clover’

Abstract

A new and distinct strain of Trifolium repens (white clover) named ‘Coretta Clover’ is disclosed, characterized by its consistent ability to produce a higher percentage of compound leaves with four and five leaflets, in combination with its leaf shape. This unique strain exhibits a propensity for approximately 0.5% to 5% of its compound leaves to be four-leaf clovers and 0.075% to 0.75% to be five-leaf clovers, a significant deviation from the typical three-leaflet morphology common to the species. The distinctive traits are stable and reproducible in asexual propagation, providing a novel variety of Trifolium repens that combines aesthetic appeal with rarity, while maintaining the general hardiness and adaptability of the species. The strain's unique phenotypic traits are of particular interest for ornamental, agricultural, artistic, cultural, and commercial applications.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of  Trifolium repens  plant named ‘Coretta Clover’ as herein shown and described.
