Bulk clover seed (lemmy.world)

Where are some places that I can get bulk white clover seed? The tractor supply-ish stores by me only have it mixed in with grass, or the deer forage variety.

I've only ever gotten it through amazon (Dutch white cover iirc). Since I'm no longer using Amazon, I'm looking for an alternative too.

Guessing you need more than 2kg bulk? ( It's also sold out)

Gonna try a lawn with it? I've been thinking about it. Let us know what you do with it and how it goes.

I’ve gotten bulk red clover from American Meadows before, and they have white clover too

Just following up, I bought some white clover and it has really taken off! This fall I'm going to get a huge bag and overseed my entire lawn.

That’s awesome! Glad to hear it worked for you!

[–] Bob_Robertson_IX@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Thanks, I just placed my order!

[–] compostgoblin@slrpnk.net 1 points 9 months ago

No problem, and good luck!

I have been using Flawn which also sells other flowers for your lawn. My local garden center has White Dutch Clover in bulk for cheaper but I have used them for English Daisy and Self Heal for my yard.

OP: Whenever you're looking for a specific plant, it helps to give the scientific name, as many plants share vernacular names or go by different vernacular names in different areas. I think that "white clover" pretty much always refers to Trifolium repens, but including the scientific name is still a "best practice" to keep in mind.

For anyone else reading, Fedco (Not Sponsored™) sells bulk white clover seed in the USA:
