Strawberry clover seed is a hardy, low-growing perennial legume valued for its excellent persistence, adaptability, and ability to thrive in challenging pasture conditions. Known for its tolerance to waterlogging and salinity, strawberry clover is an ideal choice for areas where other pasture species may struggle. It spreads through stolons, forming a dense ground cover that helps reduce weed pressure, improve soil structure, and protect against erosion.

This species provides nutritious forage for livestock, offering good feed value and palatability, particularly in mixed pasture systems. It works well alongside grasses, contributing to improved pasture balance while fixing atmospheric nitrogen to naturally enhance soil fertility. Its creeping growth habit allows it to recover quickly from grazing, making it well suited to rotational grazing systems and long-term pasture use.

Strawberry clover performs best in moist environments, including irrigated pastures, low-lying areas, and regions with higher rainfall. It tolerates a wide range of soil types, including heavier soils, and can persist under close grazing when properly managed. With strong resilience and reliable performance, strawberry clover is a practical and sustainable option for farmers looking to improve pasture productivity in difficult conditions. Cannot be sent to WA or TAS

Strawberry Clover Seed

 

A persistent, low-growing legume that improves pasture performance through nitrogen fixation, delivering good feed quality, strong ground cover, and enhanced productivity in grazing systems, especially in challenging wet or saline-prone areas.

 

Ideal For

Management: Grazed pastures requiring improved feed quality, ground cover, and nitrogen supply in moist or waterlogged conditions.
Watering: Requires consistent moisture; performs best under rainfall, irrigation, or in poorly drained areas.
Region: Temperate and high rainfall zones, including low-lying and coastal areas.
Soil Type: Heavy, poorly drained, or mildly saline soils with adequate phosphorus and potassium levels; prefers pH above 5.5 (CaCl₂).
Aspect: Full sun to light shade for optimal growth, persistence, and spreading ground cover.

What is strawberry clover used for?
Strawberry clover is used to establish persistent pastures, especially in moist, waterlogged, or saline-prone areas. It is commonly used for grazing and soil improvement.

Is strawberry clover suitable for wet soils?
Yes, strawberry clover performs very well in wet and waterlogged soils, where many other pasture species struggle to survive.

Does strawberry clover fix nitrogen?
Yes, strawberry clover is a legume that fixes atmospheric nitrogen, helping improve soil fertility and reducing the need for synthetic fertilisers.

How does strawberry clover spread?
It spreads through creeping stolons (above-ground runners), allowing it to form a dense ground cover and fill in bare areas over time.

Is strawberry clover good for livestock grazing?
Yes, it provides nutritious, palatable forage and is well suited to grazing systems, especially when managed with rotational grazing.

What type of soil is best for strawberry clover?
It grows best in moist, heavy, or poorly drained soils and can also tolerate mildly saline conditions where other legumes may fail.
