White clover

White clover is a perennial, low-growing species of clover with top-grade feed quality. It forms above-ground stolons or “runners”, which are especially good at closing gaps. It is very well suited for intensive grazing areas, due in particular to its adaptability, winter-hardiness, tolerance to being tread upon and repeatedly cut, as well as its ability to grow back quickly. It is considered particularly undemanding in terms of soil quality, though it is sensitive to drought and cold. In addition, white clover has a high water requirement and therefore tends to be best suited to cool and wet areas.
