Discover the vibrant world of Trifolium incarnatum, commonly known as Crimson Clover or Italian Clover. This versatile, annual legume brings both beauty and functionality to your landscape. Widely recognized by its other names - scarlet clover, German clover, French clover, and carnation clover - it is a popular choice for cover cropping, green manure, forage, and more. As a cover crop, Crimson Clover is excellent for rotation with vegetables or field crops, enriching soil with nitrogen and suppressing weeds. It's often paired with legumes, small grains, or winter annual grasses, proving invaluable in vineyards, orchards, and corn silage systems. Its substantial nitrogen content also makes it a brilliant green manure crop, delivering 70-150 lbs of nitrogen per acre. Beyond agriculture, it's an attractive option for erosion control, roadside beautification, and wildlife habitats. Its bright scarlet flowers are not only stunning but also attract beneficial insects, enhancing biodiversity. Adaptable to various soil types and climates, Crimson Clover thrives in well-drained, fertile soils with moderate acidity, showcasing its resilience. Whether you're looking to boost soil fertility, provide forage, or simply beautify a space, Crimson Clover is an outstanding, multifaceted choice.
