Annual Bee Clover Mix
Annual Bee Clover Mix combines annual ryegrass with a diverse group of annual clovers and medic. The mixture is designed to create a productive flowering legume stand while including a grass component for additional vegetative structure and ground cover.
Mix Components
Annual ryegrass provides the grass component, while five flowering legumes create a diverse clover- and medic-based habitat planting.
Mix Component Note: Mix components are subject to change based on seed availability. Substitutions may be made with comparable species or varieties when necessary.
A Clover-Forward Flowering Habitat Mix
Annual Bee Clover Mix emphasizes flowering legumes while retaining annual ryegrass as a complementary grass component.
Flowering Legume Diversity
Persian, berseem, crimson and balansa clovers plus medic provide multiple flowering legume types within the same planting.
Pollinator-Focused Planting
The mix is centered on flowering clovers and medic for projects where a legume-based pollinator planting is preferred.
Biological Nitrogen Fixation
The legume components are capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen when successfully inoculated, nodulated and established.
Living Ground Cover
Clover, medic and annual ryegrass establish vegetation across the soil surface when growing conditions are favorable.
Grass & Legume Structure
Annual ryegrass adds an upright grass component alongside the broader leaves and flowering growth of the legumes.
Agricultural Habitat Fit
The formulation provides a practical flowering habitat option for field borders, bee plantings and other agricultural habitat areas.
Establishment Note: Flowering timing, stand density and the relative expression of individual species will vary with planting date, soil conditions, moisture, temperature and local growing conditions.
Five Legumes With a Grass Component
Annual Bee Clover Mix takes a different approach from a traditional wildflower mix. The flowering portion is built around clovers and medic, while annual ryegrass provides a complementary grass component.
