Work was initiated in May, 1995. Information is incomplete and linkages to local or remote sites may not work but construction is being completed as fast as possible. It grows rapidly and spreads via stolons.
White clover has a shallow root system which make it intolerant of droughty soils.
Pure stands of white clover are not usually planted because of their low growth habit and associated low yield. However, they make high quality pastures in mixture with a grass and fix nitrogen for use by the grass. The various types and varieties of white clover are undistinguishable from each other except for their size. Because of this taller growth habit these varieties are often referred to as large type white clovers. Dutch or common white clovers have slightly shorter petioles than the large white clover types.
