Additional Information
Why We Recommend This
Hubam sweet clover is a fast growing, fast maturing annual clover. It is one of the most heat tolerant of clovers and can provide a deep taproot and forage biomass throughout the summer. It is a good companion for corn since it will get tall but dry down after freeze, and not impact harvest.
Things to Watch Out For
Hubam sweet clover should be planted early in the spring -- do not plant after mid-July.
