Trifolium resupinatum - Untreated Seed
Red Clover is a annual legume grown from Autumn through to Spring/Summer. It is excellent in pasture mixes for grazing off to beef cattle, dairy cattle, sheep or cut for hay. Clover can be broadcast into pasture or direct drilled for best germination. It handles some shade so it can be grown under fruit trees or as a ground cover with taller growing vegetable crops such as corn. Persian clover has excellent tolerance for wet or waterlogged pastures.
Plants can also be left to flower being a nectar rich bee plant.
If allowed to flower seed will be set and it will germinate at the next rain event.
Use in a mixed pasture with things such as Oats, Rye, Wheat, Barley, Buckwheat, other clovers etc.
To inoculate seed please purchase Sub Clover Inoculant seperately.
Sow during Autumn-summer.
500g - 1.5kg per acre as a mixed pasture.
3-5kg per acre stand alone.
