Description
A beautiful purple/red flowering, green three leaved foliage wild clover variety that the pollinating insects (particularly bumble bees) will love. Sown it will increase the fertility of your soil by fixating nitrogen into it. This variety is UK native.
Recognised to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
Easy to grow, we recommend that you mix the seed with some compost or sand to make it easier to broadcast sow, this should also result in a more even spread and therefore a better result when it grows. Ensure that the seeds receive sufficient water, but clover doesn't like to sit too bed.
