Alsike Clover 10 LB SeedsAlsike Clover SeedAlsike clover (Trifolium hybridum L.) is used for hay, pasture, and soil improvement. It grows well in poorly drained soil and offers high forage quality, similar to alfalfa. Preferring wetter soils over droughty soils, Alsike will tolerate lengthy spring flooding and completely waterlogged soil. In these conditions, alsike can still provide red-clover quality forage for multiple years (in southern locations, alsike acts as an annual).Ease of establishment: GoodSeed/lb: 680,000Seeding rate (straight): 4-6 lbs/acSeeding rate (mix): 2-4 lbs/acSeeding time: August-SeptemberSeeding depth: 1/8-1/4 inchSeeding method: Broadcast or drilled (preferred)Optimal germination temperature: Night temperatures >40 F
