Dairy farmers mix all kinds of clover seed in with their feed. Then the dairy cows drop plops in the field as they graze, and it gets planted in a fertilizer.

Buying seed in bulk as Danny was talking about (5 lbs for $15) is a great deal for broadcasting around your front and back yards. Bees love it, it looks great, and it spreads really well. I love clover. It's beautiful. There are other seeds sold in bulk like this that are edible, and using the broadcasting method in areas you want them to grow is a cheap way to get a gazillion seeds. Even with poor germination, that many seeds will always produce. I'm doing bulk dandelions again this spring in my yard and behind my fence. Delicious greens and no effort to grow.

Good Morning, Danny & Wanda... I use Red Clover (not Annual Red Crimson Clover), White Clover & a Grass Seed blend when I established my Fruit Orchard on either side of my long driveway. It's an area of non-production that a put into usefulness instead of lawn maintenance. The Red & White Clovers bloom at different times, so they are a draw for pollinators, are nitrogen fixers for the fruit trees & bushes, Teas & Tinctures for human & animals health and as our Homestead expands it will be utilized for Poultry grazing and fruit drop cleanup.

Crimson clover is definitely an annual - but you can get it to reseed itself if you let it go to flower without mowing the area (especially if you plant it in the fall). I use a mix of crimson and white cover along with tall fescue as a cover crop between the rows in my elderberry field. I keep it mowed for the most part until the elderberry plants have sprouted and gotten a little height on them, but I try to let as much of the crimson bloom as possible. The white clover and the fescue are perennial, so no issue there - but not all of my crimson clover manages to re-seed itself. I end up overseeding the area in the spring or fall (usually ends ub being in the spring for some reason) to keep the crimson growing. Take care and God Bless.

Clover is a great animal feed. And then any time you can get two benefits for one you are way ahead of the game. Don't forget you can also use clover as a cover crop for the garden. I'm testing Dutch White Clover this year as it adds 200lbs nitrogen per acre vs the 50-80lbs from Red Crimson (which is still fantastic). Put some Buckwheat down for pollinator and beneficial insect attraction (my 'insecticide' program) plus the phosphorus and manganese it pulls out for follow up crops.

I'm in SC, heartiness zone 8 and planted crimson around mid-june. Been very hot, up in 90s. Had decent amount of rain so not necessarily drought, just very hot. Will crimson start to take later in fall when temps cool down? So far doesn't look like ANY has germinated..thank you!!

While I do not have English Ivy, I have another vine that is very tough and invasive, with pretty purple flowers. But it took over the yard, and I have to weed whack in down, or it will climb up everything and kill it. Trying to take it out would be a monstrous job, as the roots are very long too. I have considered getting rolls of weed block and just covering most of my yard with it. I have used it extensively as a green mulch, but my plants don't seem to like it. I think using the weed block would at least knock it down, but with those roots, I'm not sure it would kill it off. There are other methods of killing off stuff like that, but it might make your soil toxic. I've used tons of salt to kill off small trees, but the salt stays in the soil a very long time. You might try small patches to see how straight vinegar works. It works on weeds. Boiling water might also do the trick. One patch at a time.
