Red Clover Seed

I buy a bag every season to reseed chicken pasture and plant this between garden rows. Very good germination! Supresses weeds well between garden rows and the chickens love to eat it wen they get turned loose into fresh pasture space.

This grows tall. Survived the winter and spreads quickly. Very hearty.

Accidentally bought the crimson last year which is an annual one, but got the perennial this year and so far with a good routine they are growing in and are so happy. Watering while they just start is very very important, the ones that i unfortunately did not get to water as much didn’t make it but these are the ones that did. We’ll see into next year. In zone 6a-6b.

I bought this seed to put in this year to grow clover for my rabbit and perhaps make red clover tea. I have set the base and now will add the top soil layer to get ready to seed. There are mixed reviews on the germination. However, clover is generally sturdy once started. I'm hoping this is a good value for my money. I will return with an update by and by. I have white clover growing in another section. I love having a good plant variety for my rabbit and the bees.

This clover went way above what I had expected! I think I spread the seed too late last year to see any blooms, although they did sprout, just no blooms. We had a harsh winter, lots of snow and I didn’t reseed because as soon as the weather got warmer, there was new growth! They are so tall and the blooms are enormous! I still have half the bag of seeds I didn’t spread. The picture I have shows them as of May 18 2026. The area has full sun almost all day and they are perfect and minimal to zero maintenance. I just water them if they droop. A winner for sure!

White clover. Nothing pink about it

During the pandemic I started growing clover all around my 1/2 lot. I tried four different kinds and this red clover has been one of the most successful. It grows easily and looks nice. I did not get too many flowers with my first planting but I think that was due to planting the seeds way, way, way too densely. The plants are a nice shade of green and stayed green through out the winter (I live in Silicon Valley). I was surprised to see them growing into the 2nd season. Apparently the plants will last a few years. One caution though. When you plant these seeds you must cover them with a thin layer of dirt. I did an experiment where I planted one patch with a thin layer of dirt and an adjacent patch with no dirt cover. The bare patch did not germinate successfully. Perhaps if I had watered the bare seeds multiple times per day they batch would have survived. In any event, I would very strongly recommend that these seeds be planted with 1/8 to 1/4 of dirt on top to get optimal germination success and also to minimize the gardening effort in the first week weeks of life. Anther suggestion is to follow the recommendation on density of seeds. If you plant the seeds too dense then you get a really dense mass of clovers but I think it makes it harder for any individual plant to flower. A final observation on this plant. In the fall last year these plants were looking bad. I thought that they had run their course (usually red clover are listed as "annuals") so I cut them down using the lawn mower at its lowest setting. My thought was that there would die and I would plant something new in that location. I was surprised that the cutting rejuvenated the plants going into the winter and they grew out fresh new foliage that looked great even now.

This is the 2nd year in a row I have purchased clover to plant without results. Had a wonderful experience the 1st time so I went back hoping for the same results with no clover taking root. Assumed it was a "bad batch" of seed so tried again in hopes to have the same results as year one. This is year 2 with no clover.

Fresh seeds,they will be a great

Il a bien germé et les petites fleurs sont magnifiques

Had to water it 2x a day for a week but the propagation rate was so good it nearly became a problem.

Easy to spread. Lots of seeds

Came as ordered. Germinated. 👍🏻 which is suing something in the online seed game🙄
