  • How To Sow -- Purple Prairie Clover will not tolerate regular mowings throughout the year so this plant is recommended to be planted in areas that do not require regular mowing. Mowing once in early spring and again in late fall can be beneficial to keep plants in balance. 
  • Better For Your Family & The Environment -- Purple Prairie Clover is native and supports beneficial pollinators while reducing your property's carbon footprint!
  • Reduce Maintenance Costs -- Purple Prairie Clover does not require long-term maintenance. Once it is established, it won't require watering, except in periods of extended drought.
  • What To Expect When Using Flawn Seed -- With regular watering, Purple Prairie Clover  will germinate in 2-3 weeks, and plants will be small for the first couple of months. After the first growing season, it will bloom purple cone shaped flowers about 12-24” in the middle of summer creating a vital nectar and pollen source for our friendly pollinators. Watering regularly after seeding and through dry periods is recommended for success.
  • Pure Flower Seeds -- Unlike other brands, Flawn Seed doesn't use fillers. Flowering seeds have longer germination periods and mature slower than grasses. Mature flowering plants with many blooms can take up to 6-24 months to fully establish, especially in tougher growing environments.

Seeding Information:
Can be dormant seeded in late fall when the ground is frozen or over fresh snow throughout winter. If seeding in spring, wait until ground thaws and soil temperatures are around 55 degrees (Late April to early May for upper mid-west states). Best to be seeded over bare soil areas.
