Annual Clover
Annual Clover n - Annual legume with good summer performance
Annual Clover is native to countries such as Turkey, Iran and Iraq. It is bred for it’s performance in summer dry areas. Annual clover is a self-regenerating clover, with most growth occurring in spring. Most annual clovers, particularly Balansa produce seed profusely if given the chance. Balansa’s particularly hard seed will germinate in years to come, if allowed. They can be used as either a special purpose forage crop or in pasture seed mixes with Italian ryegrasses, cereals or brassicas as a self-regenerating and highly nutritive plant.
