What does LADINO mean in Scrabble?
noun
botany
A fast-growing variety of white clover grown for hay, pasture, and soil improvement.
Ladino clover produces larger leaves and taller growth than ordinary white clover, which is why farmers favour it for grazing land and for hay that keeps its quality well. Because it fixes nitrogen in the soil, planting ladino alongside grass improves pasture without needing as much added fertiliser. The name is thought to come from the Italian region where the variety was first developed and popularised for agricultural use.
