Multiple Ship Dates
Your credit card will be charged for the full amount of your order at the time your order is submitted, regardless of the shipping time for your items. If your order requires multiple shipping dates, you will never be charged more than once for shipping charges. This allows us to ship your non-seasonal items to you as soon as possible, as well as allocate our seasonal product for your order.
For example, a customer places an order in February consisting of 5 Pounds of Wildflower Mix and 50 Darwin Hybrid Tulip Bulbs. The order would be charged in full upon submission, the seed would be shipped immediately, and the bulbs would be shipped at the optimal time in the autumn based on the customer's zip code.

About Cover Crop Seeds - Clover Medium Red
Trifolium pratense
Medium Red Clover is a versatile, short-lived perennial valued for its exceptional nitrogen-fixing ability, even in soils that already contain moderate nitrogen levels. More shade tolerant than many legumes, it can be over-seeded into small grains and incorporated the following spring. Seedlings establish slowly and benefit from a nurse crop. With deep taproots, Medium Red Clover helps loosen compacted soils, improves soil structure, and provides effective weed suppression, making it an excellent choice for soil building and regeneration.
