White Clover
There are several sub-species of Clover with white blossoms. They are all nitrogen-fixing legumes but have different growth habits and uses. Alice White Clover, New Zealand White Clover, and Ladino Clover are all medium-height white blossom clovers most commonly used in pasture grazing mixtures. White Dutch Clover is a low growing, spreading perennial legume that is used in lawns and as a living mulch in orchards, vineyards, or other high-value crops. White Blossom Sweet Clover is a tall biennial clover primarily used by beekeepers.
