Know before you buy
Yes, it is an excellent sustainable alternative. It stays green longer than many turf grasses, requires significantly less mowing, and naturally suppresses weeds.
Dutch White Clover is a hardy perennial that thrives in growing zones 3 through 10. It is designed to return year after year across a wide range of climates.
Each packet contains enough seed to cover approximately 5 to 10 square feet. It is best suited for small patches, overseeding existing lawns, or filling in bare spots.
It prefers loamy soil but is quite adaptable. Because it is a legume, it naturally fixes nitrogen in the soil, meaning it generally does not require additional chemical fertilizers.
Absolutely. This variety is non-GMO and neonicotinoid-free, making it a safe and highly attractive food source for bees and other beneficial pollinators.
The packet features a collectible 1960s design from the Landreth archives, but it is filled with fresh, high-quality seeds intended for planting.
