Persian Clover - Nitrocoated Seed (lb)

Great for Weed Competition and Erosion Control

Trifolium resupinatum Annual cool-season legume cover crop.

Persian Clover is an annual clover valued for its dense growth, excellent weed suppression, and nitrogen fixation of up to 200 lb/acre. Its fragrant purplish-pink flowers bloom continuously longer than any other clover, providing extended forage for pollinators while enriching the soil. Establishing quickly in just 5–10 days, it grows up to 2 feet tall and tolerates mowing, reseeding readily for long-term benefits. Adaptable to a wide range of soils, it thrives with as little as 8–10 inches of annual rainfall and can withstand temperatures down to 15°F. Best sown in fall, Persian Clover is effective for erosion control, forage, and soil fertility improvement. Nitrocoated seed requires no inoculant and performs best with consistent moisture.

  • Application Rate: 6–10 lb/acre, or 0.25–1 lb/1,000 sq ft
  • Inoculant: None needed, seed is nitrocoated
  • Germination: 5–10 Days
  • Plant Height: 2'
  • Uses: Forage crop, nitrogen fixing, erosion control, weed suppression, and pollinator support
  • Facts to Note: Tolerates a wide range of soils, withstands mowing, reseeds readily, and continues to grow with adequate moisture. Hardy to 15°F and requires only 8–10" of rainfall annually.

Made to order. Minimum order quantity is 50 pounds.

Did You Know? Persian Clover’s long-blooming flowers not only enrich pollinator habitat but also extend forage availability later into the season compared to other clovers.

Note to Certified Organic Growers from Manufacturer: Nitro-coated seed is conventionally grown seed that has had an organically accepted seed coating applied to it. The seed itself is conventionally grown, non-GMO, and untreated (no fungicides or insecticide seed treatment applied) prior to coating. The seed coat consists of certified organic powdered limestone, an organically approved binder (glue), and peat peat-based inoculant that is also OMRI-approved and organically accepted. The seed coating is applied in a OMRI-approved process in a separate treatment line that only produces Nitro-coated seeds.
