WHITE CLOVER ON A DOCK ROOT

We were once told that if we could find a white clover with a root like a dock or parsnip we would go a long way in solving the problem of supplying a clover adapted to dry temperate areas. We think we have found it in Permatas!

• A long lived perennial legume
• Highly persistent under heavy grazing
• Very drought tolerant
• Tap root to 50cm
• Palatable
• Easy to establish

Geographical range of adaptation:

Warm temperate and cool Mediterranean environments. (T. tumens is distributed throughout the Eastern Mediterranean, Caucasus and mountainous regions of the Middle East ).

This cultivar is considered a replacement for White Clover in those areas that are considered marginally too dry for that species. To be released in 2011.
