DESCRIPTION:
California burclover is a summer annual weed. Stems are up to 2
feet (60 cm) long and tend to trail along the ground, but may
grow upright.
The trifoliate leaves resemble those of clover and usually have
reddish-tinged midveins. Small, bright yellow flowers form in
clusters
at the end of stems. The seed pod is a bur that contains several
yellowish or tan, kidney-shaped seeds. Seed leaves are oblong.
The
first true leaf is rounded with a single leaflet. Later leaves
have the characteristic cloverlike shape.
