Its standout trait is tolerance: it handles wet ground and acidic (low-pH) soils that many clovers can’t, and it’s very cold hardy (USDA Zones 3–8). It blooms generously, making it an excellent pollinator and bee plant, and it works well for cover cropping, green manure, pollinator habitat, and wildlife food plots. Our seed is uncoated and tested for purity and germination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003e⚠ IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE — NOT FOR HORSES: Alsike clover can be toxic to horses, causing photosensitization (skin lesions) and liver damage, especially with sustained grazing or alsike-heavy hay. Do NOT plant it in horse pastures or feed it to horses (fresh or as hay). Use it only for cover cropping, pollinator habitat, wildlife plots, and non-equine wet pastures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 6.0pt 0in 2.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003eWet \u0026amp; acidic tolerance: \u003c\/b\u003eperforms in damp, low-pH soils where many clovers fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003eCold hardy: \u003c\/b\u003ea tough short-lived perennial for Zones 3–8.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003eNitrogen fixer: \u003c\/b\u003ebuilds soil fertility naturally for the next crop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003ePollinator-friendly: \u003c\/b\u003eabundant blooms support bees and other pollinators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cb\u003eClean, uncoated seed: \u003c\/b\u003eno fillers, coatings, or dyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 6.0pt 0in 2.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBest Uses\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003eCover crop and green manure\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003ePollinator and bee habitat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003eWildlife food plots\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -13.5pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; margin: 0in 0in 2.0pt 27.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e•\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003eWet pastures for non-equine livestock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 6.0pt 0in 2.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eImportant Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003eAlsike is a forage\/cover-crop legume — not a residential lawn or turf grass, and it does not tolerate foot traffic.
