Medicago fruit pics 4

Post by MWP admin »

More medicago fruits.

Same as M. polymorpha but very small spines and thicker turns. Was quite common on waste ground beside fields.

Thanks for posting so many Medicago species, i love them. but that is a difficult one. I suspect it is a form of polymorpha since it usually grows together with polymorpha but i will have it checked.

This Medicago is a mystery. Rather common in abandoned fields, but neither mentioned on Haslam, nor identified on the forum for nearly a year.

Reposting for fresh ideas ....
