White Dutch Clover Organic Perennial Cover Crop

Certified Organic.

Dutch White Clover is a versatile, low-growing perennial cover crop that enriches soil, suppresses weeds, and supports pollinators. Known for its ability to fix nitrogen, it improves soil fertility naturally, making it an excellent living mulch between vegetable rows or under taller, established crops. Its dense, low habit makes it ideal for garden pathways and lawn diversification, creating a resilient turf that attracts bees and butterflies with continuous white blooms. Hardy, tolerant of mowing and foot traffic, and well-suited to a wide range of soils, Dutch White Clover is an easy, multipurpose plant for both productive gardens and pollinator-friendly landscapes.

Sow Dutch White Clover in early spring or late summer when soil is moist. Broadcast seed at about ¼ lb per 1,000 sq ft, lightly raking or pressing into the soil for good contact. Plant no deeper than ¼ inch. Clover thrives in sun to partial shade and tolerates a wide range of soils. Keep moist until established. Use as a living mulch under vegetables, overseed into lawns for pollinator-friendly turf, or plant in paths for a tough, nitrogen-fixing groundcover. Regular mowing encourages denser growth and longer blooming.

The Midwest, with its unique combination of diverse topographies, microclimates, soil types, and weather patterns, presents a distinct set of growing challenges. At Driftless Seed Supply, our deep understanding of these conditions, honed by years of experience as Midwest growers, informs every seed we produce.

Generations of seed production, coupled with rigorous trialing in partnership with regional farmers, have enabled us to offer seeds that are exceptionally well-suited to the Midwest's unique growing environment.

Our commitment goes beyond just supplying seeds. We strive to ensure that Midwest farmers and gardeners like you have access to seeds that are not only well-adapted to our region but also capable of producing outstanding yields. Each generation of seeds we cultivate here in the Midwest—rather than in distant, climatically different regions—enhances the adaptability and performance of our varieties, setting them apart from those offered by many other seed companies.

Additionally, our collaboration with small local farms for most of our seed production is a testament to our dedication to strengthening the Midwest's food system. This approach not only supports local agriculture but also avoids the need to rely on large-scale production facilities in distant locations, whether out West or abroad.

We ship anywhere in the lower 48 states of the US via USPS.

All sales are final and we do not accept returns or exchanges except in the case of delivering the wrong item or recalling specific seed lots due to contamination. For wholesale customers who purchase our pre-filled bundles, we will provide a credit for the following season’s order for any packets returned by October 1st.
