I am having a difficult time posting pictures to this website so I must be doing it wrong....
....but here goes....Another ID request, please.
I've nicknamed this plant Jumbo Alfalfa, only because it sort looks like an alfalfa relative to me. It re-seeds itself but not invasively so. I like it, the bees really love it.
(1st pic is of the seedlings sprouting up in my spare strawberry patch)
