About Medium Red Clover

Red Clover is a legume that can be a biennial or short-lived perennial. It is mainly used for forage, alone or in mixtures with grasses. It likes most well drained sites and will handle higher pH soils. The rose/pink flowers atop numerous stems make Red Clover a great habitat plant as well. Medium Red Clover is more palatable than the Mammoth Red Clover and considered a 2 cut clover as it matures earlier and recovers faster. Seed in spring or late summer/early fall. Red Clover is good for soil building or adding diversity and nitrogen to CRP seedings.
