How to keep Trifolium Michelianum.
Light
Balansa clover comes from bright, open habitats and does best in full sun. It can tolerate partial sun but prefers direct sunlight for optimal growth. This annual or biennial plant is known for its sun-loving nature.
Temperature
Balansa clover can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, but its distribution may still be restricted by specific combinations of moisture and heat. It grows best in warm summer conditions with sufficient rainfall or watering. Extended stretches of cloudy, rainy weather or prolonged high temperatures increase the chance of Balansa clover dying. In winter, adequate protection from cold can improve its survival.
