Dutch White Clover - Nitrocoated Seed (lb)

Dutch White Clover - Nitrocoated Seed (lb)

Good for Shady Areas

Trifolium repens Perennial legume cover crop.

Lowest-growing white clover, often planted in lawns because it tolerates regular mowing and shade, and requires summer irrigation. Recommended by M. Fukuoka (The One Straw Revolution) for use in permanent vegetable and row crop plantings.

  • Application Rate: 0.25"-0.5" deep, 0.5-1 lb/1000 sq ft or 15-20 lb/acre
  • Inoculant: None needed, seed is nitrocoated
  • Germination: 5-10 Days
  • Plant Height: 8"
  • Use: Cover crop, turf, erosion control
  • Facts to Note: Spreads rapidly, chokes weeds and can be invasive. Does well on acid to moderately alkaline soils. Prefers moist, well-drained soil with plenty of lime, phosphate and potash, and is adversely affected by synthetic Nitrogen. Plant in fall or spring.

Beautiful in my garden!

I spread the seed in my garden. Feels great under foot, kids and dog love how cool it feels in the Summer.

Easy to sow

Germinates quickly, within a week. Great coverage and minimal to no weeds. Hard to grow grass in desert climate and this did a phenomenal job of filling in gaps.

Wonderful! Will buy again

Easy to sow, sprouted within one week with a light cover of straw. I’ll be ordering more in fall.

Love it

This is the second time I have bought this seed. I love it. I worry about the bees so I always want some clover in the yard. I was happy to see how quickly it came up and I like that it is organic. Very happy with my purchase. Peaceful Valley is a good company with safe products.
