It is an introduced, short-lived, non-creeping perennial with a growth habit similar to red clover. Alsike is usually planted with grasses for pasture and hay in areas where other high yielding legumes are not adapted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlsike clover is adapted to a wide range of soil types and grows well in northern latitudes and at high elevations. It survives severe winters and performs best where summers are cool. It grows well on soils that are too acidic for red clover (pH \u0026lt; 6.0) and can tolerate more alkalinity and wetter soils than most clovers. Alsike does not tolerate droughty sites but will tolerate completely waterlogged soils and will withstand spring flooding up to six weeks. It is not shade tolerant. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeeding information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zones 3-5; annual in wet soils in zones 6-7.
