I have a patch of white clover in my yard that I planted about 25 years ago. The soil is sandy. I don't remember the details of the planting, but I do remember that I broadcast the seeds by hand and lightly raked them in with a leaf rake. This clover is very well established and is the dominant plant in an area of about 300 SF.

Hi Shuffles! Great to hear that someone in FL has been successful with the white clover! I've not been so lucky with it, but certainly won't be giving up. I find it far superior to grass, don't you?

jason, yes I really like the clover. I forgot to mention that when I planted the clover, I used the back of a leaf rake to cover the seed. Next time it blooms, I plan to post a photo here.

You wouldn't happen to know what kind of white clover, would you? Dutch White, Ladino type, etc? Look forward to seeing the photo :)

jason,

I am pretty sure it is the Ladino type. The bloom photo won't be for months.

I wonder if that's why I'm having trouble...I was going for the shorter varieties like white dutch, new zealand, etc. I suppose if Ladino works for you it should work for me...sounds like you've got the same soil.

Thank you again Shuffles! :)
