Crimson Clover - SARE Nationwide

Duration: Annual Origination:Southeast EuropeEdibility: Tea from flowersStatus in Yard: Growing in raised beds

I sowed crimson clover in my raised beds as a cover crop in the fall of 2016. Here it is shown along with onions and other alliums.

Patches of it persist in the beds in 2018, having survived the hard January freezes.
On April 1, 2018, I noticed the clover's red flower heads. I need to remove the clover before it goes to seed.
