How to keep Trifolium Sylvaticum.
Light
Trifolium sylvaticum is a sun-loving perennial herbaceous plant native to open habitats, commonly occurring in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun.
Temperature
Trifolium sylvaticum can adjust to a broad spectrum of temperature conditions, but its range may nonetheless be constrained by various combinations of moisture and heat. It grows best in warm summer conditions with sufficient rainfall or irrigation. Extended periods of overcast, rainy weather, and prolonged high temperatures both raise the risk of Trifolium sylvaticum dying.

Fertilizer
One application of fertilizer in spring is typically sufficient for Trifolium sylvaticum, although multiple feedings can maximize growth. Apply fertilizer about once every month to six weeks.
