Nature's Seed Dutch Clover for 1/4 Acre - S-TRRE-0.25-A

Marvin Tanner: I found out after seeding the yard that I should have mixed the seed with soil or sand to evenly distribute the seed.

I just ordered 50 lbs from another distributor. Lets see what happends.

Steph J: I like that it isn't coated. I haven't had success with the other coated brand I purchased. I even sprouted some of these to eat for ourselves and feed to our ducks in the winter. They sprout well you just have to remember to keep it wet for a few days. And even though the bag was small I've seeded several large areas and still have 3/4 of a bag left. We are planting this to created a no mow lawn for an extra lot we purchased.

BrigadoonBrigadoon: I waited 18 months to write this review. I planted around 8000 sq ft of this seed in various places around my forest home in zone 5. I barely watered the seed in. I soaked it 3 times per week for the first 3 weeks. We were in a drought last year. I never raked it. The slopes and flat areas grew quickly (around 4-6weeks) but we had six months of winter and 10 ft of snow sitting on top of it from Nov-May of 23. These picture are from June of 23. It came back with a vengeance and cuts like an average residential property.

Currently: I will raise my review to 4 stars. I still stand by my original assessment about the large white clover. However after a second month of heavy rain, it appears the smaller white Dutch clover has a longer germination period and is finally sprouting after 2 months. There is still the large Lado cover but the much smaller white Dutch is finally coming out thick.

Original Review Below
This is not the traditional small dense white Dutch clover. It is large like red clover with a woody stem. Due to a long rainy period, it was 2 weeks before I mowed my lawn. Clover plants were 8 to 10 inches tall with flowers just emerging. Doing a bit of research on “white clover”, I came across a website titled White, Ladino and Sweet clover. The Ladino large clover seems to be what I planted. Can’t see how this seed can be self propagating as the flowers occur over 6 inches in height and will be constantly mowed. Now stuck with a large bag of seed I can’t return. If you’re planting for foraging, knock yourself out. If you’re planting for a lawn, look elsewhere, this is not what you are looking for. I have been planting “soil conservation mix” lawn seed for fifty years.

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I just bought another bag of this but wanted to write a review for anyone on the fence. BUY IT, BUT IT NOW!! It's only been one month and soooo much growth and improvement! Our side yard is incredibly soggy and poor draining. It's been a muddy mess despite adding nearly 12in of good soil, sod, and drainage. Literally the ONLY plant we can get to grow in a red twig dogwood that can handle the clay and the sog.
I'll be adding more pics once we do more of our yard but we are soooo happy! Our last house had a gorgeous lawn that was mostly clover. The only reason ppl think clover is a weed is because a corporation developed a broad leaf weed killer that also happened to kill clover. Up until that point, clover was always part of grass mixes because it takes less water and is loads better for the soil. Clover doesn't burn from dog urine and it is pollinator friendly.
We are in the PNW, zone 8a, and even with babying the ever loving crap out of our sod, it looked like a hot mess. Can't wait for the clover to truly take over 🙌
