O'Conners Strawberry Clover - Nitrocoated Seed (lb)

Low Growing Clover for Orchards

Trifolium fragiferum Perennial legume cover crop.

Dwarf Strawberry Clover is a compact perennial clover valued for its lush growth and attractive strawberry-shaped blooms. Growing to just 10 inches tall, it provides year-round ground cover in full sun to light shade. This versatile clover is ideal for landscaping—often paired with White Alyssum for striking contrast—as well as for orchards and vineyards where irrigation is available. Beyond its ornamental appeal, it supports soil health by fixing nitrogen and creating a dense, living mulch that suppresses weeds and reduces erosion.

  • Application Rate: 0.25"-0.5" deep at 0.5-1 lb/1000 sq ft or 12-15 lb/acre
  • Inoculant: No additional inoculant is needed. The legume seed is already coated with the appropriate Rhizobium bacteria to support nodulation and nitrogen fixation.
  • Germination: 5–10 Days
  • Plant Height: 10"
  • Uses: Landscaping, ground cover, orchards, vineyards (with irrigation)
  • Facts to Note: Less heat- and alkali-tolerant than Palestine Strawberry Clover but grows well on most soils. Best planted in fall or spring.

Note for certified organic growers: Nitrocoated seed is conventionally grown, non-GMO seed with no fungicide or insecticide seed treatment applied before coating. The coating contains certified organic powdered limestone, an organically approved binder, and an OMRI-approved peat-based inoculant, applied through an OMRI-approved process on a dedicated Nitrocoated-seed treatment line.
