Trifolium parryi, commonly known as Parry's clover or Parry clover, is a high altitude species of plant from the western United States. It grows in the Rocky Mountains from southern Montana to northern New Mexico. It is a short plant that is adapted to the harsh conditions and short growing season near and above timberline.

Trifolium parryi is a short species of herbaceous plant that has either very short stems or no stems at all and only grows to 4–25 centimeters (1+1⁄2–10 in) in height. Though short in stature it is the tallest of the clovers that grow in the alpine tundra with larger, showier flowers than the other alpine clovers. The plants grow to form continuous mats, spreading by branching, slender rhizomes. The leaves and stems grow from structure called a caudex. Older plants develop a substantial taproot. The leaves are compound and have the classic three leaflets of the clover genus. The leaves are attached directly to the base of the plant by small leaf stems called petioles, which range in length from 8 millimeters (3⁄8 in) to 19 cm (7+1⁄2 in). Each of the three leaflets is 5–43 mm (1⁄4–1+3⁄4 in) long, 1.5–16 mm (1⁄16–5⁄8 in) wide, and hairless. The leaflets have toothed edges towards their base and may have their widest point toward the base, the midpoint, or toward the end. Flower heads extend above the leaf canopy on flower stems (peduncles) 1.8–22 cm (3⁄4–8+3⁄4 in) long, that spring from the stems when present. Each flower head has five to thirty very small flowers forming the rounded head. The individual flowers are 12–22 mm (1⁄2–7⁄8 in) long. They are deep pink to a rose in color and noticeably fragrant. Flowering may occur in the summer or early fall, June to September in its native habit. The fruit is a simple carpel, often called a pod, each containing one to four seeds. The flower petals wither and turn yellow-brown, but continue to enclose the pods as they develop and ripen.

Trifolium parryi depends on the golden-belted bumblebee for pollination. In areas where there are more individuals of this species of bumblebee the plants set more seed.

Trifolium parryi was scientifically described and named by Asa Gray in 1862. It has three subdivisions, two subspecies and one variety according to Plants of the World Online and World Flora Online. World Plants lists all three subdivisions as subspecies. Trifolium parryi var. montanense The variety montanense was first described as a species by Per Axel Rydberg in 1900 using the name Trifolium montanense. It was described as a subspecies by John Montague Gillett (1918-2014) in 1965 and as a variety in 1978 by Stanley Larson Welsh (1928-). It is found in Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming. Trifolium parryi subsp. parryi The autonymic subspecies grows in New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming. Trifolium parryi subsp. salictorum Subspecies salictorum was first described by Rydberg in 1906 using a partial description by Edward Lee Greene. It was initially described as the species Trifolium salictorum before being described as a subspecies by Gillett in 1965. It is endemic to Colorado. According to the USDA it is found in ten mountain counties. The subspecies has thicker leaves that are less sharply pointed. The flower heads are longer and are supported by thicker flower stems than subspecies parryi. Names The clover genus, Trifolium, is named in botanical Latin as three leaves. The species name was selected by Gray to honor the plant collector Charles Christopher Parry. It is one of at least seven examples of species Gray named for Parry that still bear his name, such as Arnica parryi, Ericameria parryi, Helianthella parryi, Oreochrysum parryi, Campanula parryi and Pedicularis parryi. In English, the species is very often called Parry's clover. A variant on this common name is Parry clover. It is also sometimes known as rose clover or alpine clover, though the species Trifolium dasyphyllum is more often called alpine clover and Trifolium hirtum is more commonly called rose clover.
