Is this alfalfa? It's growing in a field up the road from me, it got to about 18" tall and then was cut down and is now starting to grow again.

SP, I've never seen it before, and had no idea what it looked like either. I didn't think it was a crop farmers grew in the UK. It's growing on a field that has been quarried for sand, and recently put back to a field, so maybe it's being grown as a green manure and will get ploughed in.
And now I know what's growing in one of my tubs. I emptied a packet of wildflower seeds (one of those freebie ones) onto a tub last year, and the only thing that came up was this. I wasn't impressed and let the tub dry out and the top growth all dried up and withered away, but it's grown again this year. So I shall nurture it and hope it flowers for the bumble bees
