Narrative
Marion Germplasm Dillenius' tick-trefoil is a multi-stemmed, native perennial legume that grows up to 12 cm (47 in) tall. Stems are erect to somewhat prostrate and somewhat villous. Stipules are slender. The petioled, trifoliate leaves are 10-25 cm (4-10 in) long. Leaflets are lanceolate, entire (not toothed), appressed-hairy above that generates a rougher texture than the sparsely villous and paler underside. The flowers are pink to purple, 6-13 mm (1/4-1/2 in) long, and loosely clustered in terminal and axillary racemes. The fruit pods contain 1 to 5 segmented units covered with hooked hairs.

Pedigree
Description:
Forty-nine collections of tick-trefoil (various species) were assembled from 8 states and 16 Major Land Resource Areas. Seeds from each collection were planted in the greenhouse for preliminary observation of growth characteristics in 1989. In 1990 plants from 40 of the collections were placed in propagation beds for a 2-year evaluation of survival, vigor, seed weight, plant height and width, bloom period, disease resistance, foliage production, and flower abundance. Five accessions, including Marion Germplasm, were selected for further evaluation based on early and late season ranking summaries. Advanced evaluations were completed in 1992 on the five remaining accessions. The Marion collection and two other accessions were selected for increase due to their superior survival, emergence, vigor, and foliage abundance.
