Organic Medium Red Clover - 1 LB ~250,000 Seeds - Non-GMO, Open Pollinated - Farm & Garden Cover Crop - Sprouting Seeds

Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth. Medium red clover is a short-lived perennial used to supply nitrogen. Unlike other legumes it fixes a lot of nitrogen even in high-nitrogen soils. It has shade tolerance so it can be overseeded into small grains and incorporated in May of the following year. Since red clover seedlings tend to be slow growing it benefits from a nurse crop. It forms tap roots and is useful for remediation of compacted soils. Red clover is also good for weed suppression.<br> Cancer - Researchers from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have found anti-tumor properties in clover. NCI researchers felt compelled to investigate the plant after their own Jonathan Hartwell Ph.D. published a monograph in The Journal of Natural products in which he pointed out that 33 different cultures around the world use red clover to treat cancer. That amounts to a whole lot of people agreeing that the herb has anti-cancer action. And sure enough NCI researchers emerged from their laboratories with confirmation that red clover contains four anti-tumor compounds including daidzein and genistein.
