There are native clovers, but they aren't what you would really classify as ground cover.

    Trifolium stoloniferum probably would fit that bill. But its easily outcompeted by other plants.

    That's buffalo clover right? Isn't that extinct, or like really close to it?

    Its endangered, once thought to be extinct. Like i said, its easily out competed so it relied of large harbivores to eat/trample the competition.

  • Would be cool to see it make a comeback on some of the buffalo reservations. Don't know if those places have quite the herd size to make it feasible. Amazing what some of the vast herds could do to transform the prairies back in the day.
