THIS IS A 15 LB BAG OF WHITE DUTCH CLOVER SEED. THE SEED COUNT IS OVER 800,000 SEEDS PER POUND. IT IS USEFUL IN LAWNS, PASTURES, GROUND COVERS, AND DEER FOOD PLOTS. IT USUALLY GROWS TO A HEIGHT OF 6 TO 8 INCHES AND PROVIDES NITROGEN FOR YOUR LAWN, PASTURE, OR FOOD PLOT. IT IS A LEGUME AND, AS SUCH, WILL FIX NODULES ON THE ROOTS WHICH THEN DRAW NITROGEN FROM THE ATMOSPHERE INTO THE PLANT AND SOIL. IT WILL GROW IN ALMOST ANY TYPE OF SOIL AND IS VERY HARDY. ONCE ESTABLISHED, IT WILL LAST FOR YEARS AND WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD. IT CAN BE GROWN BY ITSELF OR IN A MIX WITH YOUR FAVORITE GRASS LIKE FESCUE OR BLUEGRASS. RECOMENDED SEEDING RATE IS BETWEEN 6 TO 8 LBS PER 1000 SQ FT. WHITE DUTCH CLOVER MAY BE SEED IN LATE WINTER, EARLY SPRING, OR EARLY FALL. SEEDING CAN BE DONE BY BROADCAST METHOD OVER THE TOP OF EXISTING GRASS AND IF DONE IN LATE WINTER WILL WORK ITS WAY INTO THE SOIL BY THE FREEZING AND THAWING EFFECT. THEN, WHEN TEMPERATURES WARM, IT WILL QUICKLY GERMINATE. WEED CONTROL IS SIMPLE. NO NEED FOR HERBICIDES AS A GOOD THICK STAND WILL SUPPRESS WEED GROWTH. JUST MOW TO REMOVE ANY UNSIGHTLY WEEDS IF THEY APPEAR.
