Red Clover, Heirloom Herb Seeds — The Medicinal Perennial and Bumblebee Essential With Mildly Sweet Sprouts

Red Clover (Trifolium pratense) is a short-lived herbaceous perennial with delicate leafy stems, leaves of three, and rose-pink oval flower heads — a beloved medicinal herb used for hundreds of years and an essential resource for bumblebees. Sprouts are a popular alternative to alfalfa sprouts — reliable growers with a mildly pleasant, slightly sweet taste. Excellent in sprouting mixes, salads, and sandwiches. When exposed to light, sprouts grow green and rich with chlorophyll and vitamins. 300+ seeds per packet.
