Family: Legume (Fabaceae) Hardy to zones 4 to 10 (Red Clover) Medium red Clover is a lush, nitrogen-fixing biennial, taprooted cover crop native to temperate Europe and Asia. Broadcast seed on newly tilled ground in spring, summer or fall. Clovers are the best choice for forcing out unwanted weed species. Their activity is three-fold (just like their leaves): they loosen the subsoil with their roots, fix atmospheric N in the soil with their root nodules, and offer tea by way of their bright red flowers that occur in the second year of growth. Traditional usage (TWM): Blood cleansing. In warm winter areas the seed may be sown in the fall for an overwintering cover, or in cold winter areas it may be sown in the spring or in the summer. Germ time 3 to 7 days. Fixes 140 lbs nitrogen per acre. Packet contains 500 seeds. Sow 1 lb per 2,000 square feet, 10 lbs per acre. Certified Organically Grown
