Sow in late spring through summer at 3 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. This fail-proof, fast-growing cover crop is an excellent soil conditioner. Taproots help to break down clay soil. It often blooms in 30 days from seed and is enjoyed by honeybees when in flower. Lush, broadleaf plants are great for weed control, and are widely used to control quackgrass and other pesky weeds. Grows on poorest soil and extracts phosphates from soil and passes them along to later crops when tilled under. Not winter hardy. 1 1/2 lbs.
