Description
Crimson Clover is an annual, non-aggressive legume that produces dark, strawberry-red blooms. Crimson Clover attracts pollinators to your garden and helps enhance your soil by adding nitrogen. It is often used as a cover crop in some areas of the U.S. This easy to grow, low maintenance variety adds beautiful color to your garden.
Crimson clover grows best in cool weather and planted in spring or fall. Direct sow outdoors after all danger of frost in spring for a summer annual, or 6 to 8 weeks before first fall frost for a winter annual. Plant in sun or partial shade in average, well-draining soil. Can overwinter in zones 6 and warmer. Flowers can be harvested and used fresh or dried to make a delicious tea.
