Low-Growing Clover Mix is a powerhouse for improving soil health and structure while offering a resilient ground cover solution for diverse growing conditions. This thoughtfully crafted blend features Dutch White Clover and Palestine Strawberry Clover, each bringing unique benefits to your garden or farm.

Dutch White Clover thrives in cool weather and partial shade, making it an ideal choice for temperate climates or areas with limited sunlight. Its nitrogen-fixing capabilities enrich the soil, promoting healthier, more productive plants. Palestine Strawberry Clover complements this by preferring warmer climates, full sun, and neutral to alkaline soils. Together, they create a robust cover that adapts to various conditions, forming a dense sod through seed spread and runners.

This mix is particularly beneficial for improving soil structure. The deep root systems of clover help aerate compacted soil, enhancing drainage and water infiltration. Additionally, the dense growth suppresses weeds and minimizes soil erosion, providing a natural solution for maintaining soil integrity. Clover’s nitrogen-fixing ability works symbiotically with soil microbes, replenishing nutrients and reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

Designed to support heavy tractor use, even in wet conditions, Low-Growing Clover Mix is perfect for pathways, orchards, vineyards, or as a green manure in garden beds. Whether you’re looking to protect and enrich your soil or establish a durable ground cover, this mix delivers exceptional results for sustainable and productive growing systems.
