THERES CLOVER, AND THEN THERES GENUINE NEW ZEALAND RED AND WHITE CLOVER. AND THEN THERES DEER. Few plants are more effective at attracting whitetail and turkey
than clover. Use Clover Plus a perennial blend of our New Zealand Red
and White clovers with our extremely successful varieties of chicory and you turn that attraction into an obsession. Our New Zealand clover
has been genetically developed to produce larger, more succulent leaves
and thinner stems for higher nutritional value and improved
digestibility. The chicory provides appealing forage during critical
months of whitetail growth and development. Both clover and chicory are
extremely hardy and drought-resistant, yielding consistent production
through the hot months of summer. Its a combination of high nutrition,
delicious taste and robust growth that deer cant resist and nature
cant beat.

How to Plant
Clover Plus is best planted by spreading on a
well-prepared seedbed at 9 lbs. per acre, then using a cultipacker to
cover the seed. Broadcasting on a well-prepared seedbed just prior to
rain also produces an excellent stand the rain serves to bury the seed
the appropriate depth (1/4 inch) and ensures adequate soil moisture for
germination. Disking is not a recommended method of covering the seed
as it would bury the seed too deep for germination. 5 lbs. per acre is
recommended for existing perennial stands.
When to Plant
In the south, plant Clover Plus in early fall, as
soon as soil moisture is sufficient for seed germination. Spring
planting isnt recommended; frequent summer drought conditions could
limit root growth. In the north, plant Clover Plus in the spring when
soil temperature is 50° or higher and soil moisture is sufficient. Fall
planting isnt recommended; frost may occur before root systems are
established. This blend can also be frost-seeded in the spring.
