Sowing and care
Trifolium Repens can be broadcasted outdoors from April. It likes to spread through its fast-rooting runners, a trait which has also earned it the reputation of being a rather stubborn weed in ornamental gardens - whereas, on meadows and lawns, this property is very convenient, as lush green fields of clover develop quickly. The creeping clover loves sunny locations and sandy to loamy fresh, moist soil.
