White Dutch Clover (Trifolium Repens) - White Dutch Clover designates a strain of white clover which is perennial and drought tolerant. Used in lawns, as a ground cover, cover crop, for erosion control, and in pasture mixtures. Usually matures around 8 - 12 inches tall. White Dutch clover and our Miniclover® are the most popular clover seeds used for lawns.  Miniclover® is more dwarf only reaching approximately 4-6 inches tall, has a much smaller leaf blade, and is not as aggressive as white Dutch making it the better lawn clover choice.

Many homeowners include White Dutch clover in their lawn seed mixture because clover sprouts fast and grows so dependably that it's a valuable aid in getting a new lawn started. White dutch clover is the most popular clover seed for lawn alteratives, due to the fact it is cheaper than  Miniclover®.
