Allow ball clover to mature a crop of seed each year to insure reseeding. It requires close management to mature a crop while not damaging the grass sod. Cut or graze excess growth of grass in September to allow clover to germinate. Ball clover is a dense growing clover that may suppress the growth of desirable perennial plants if not sufficiently grazed or clipped in mid to early spring. It grows erect to a height of 2 feet or more.
Stems are hollow.
Flowers are white, and form small heads. Produces a high quality forage. Performs best on loam soils of central and South Mississippi. Well suited for the Black Belt area. Inoculate seed prior to planting.
