Old Cobblers Farm™ Wicked Tuff Turf Dutch White Clover

Dutch White Clover seeds for lawns, pastures, and cover crops. Eco-friendly, nitrogen-fixing, drought-resistant, and pollinator-friendly ground cover. Perfect for sustainable lawns & soil health.

Dutch White Clover (Trifolium repens) is a hardy, perennial ground cover and lawn alternative prized for its lush green foliage, soft texture, and small white blossoms. Known for its nitrogen-fixing ability, this clover naturally improves soil fertility by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a plant-available form, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

Ideal for lawns, pastures, cover crops, and pollinator habitats, Dutch White Clover is highly adaptable—thriving in USDA Zones 3–9, full sun to partial shade, and a wide range of soil types including clay, loam, and sandy soils. It’s drought-tolerant once established, suppresses weeds with its dense growth, and recovers quickly from light to moderate foot traffic.

Whether used as a low-maintenance eco-friendly lawn alternative, a soil-improving cover crop, or a forage option for livestock, Dutch White Clover provides year-round beauty and long-lasting environmental benefits.
