Purple Prairie Clover (Dalea purpurea) shown above growing at the CSR Colorado Nursery Facility, is one of the most widespread of the perennial Prairie Clovers, identifiable by their cone-like flower heads. An excellent range species, with high protein content, Purple Prairie Clover decreases in abundance with overgrazing. The purple prairie clover is recognized by pollination ecologists as attracting large numbers of native bees. (Lady Bird Johnson Wildflowers)
