Medium Red Clover CTD Per Lb
Medium Red Clover is a fast-establishing, high-protein legume that performs exceptionally well across a wide range of soil conditions, including damp or moderately acidic soils. It provides highly palatable, nutrient-rich forage from early spring through late autumn. As a nitrogen-fixing perennial/biennial, it naturally enriches the soil, making it ideal for multi-year plots, nurse crops, or rotational soil improvement.
