This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Dutch, red clover are both good options. Dutch will only grow a 6-8" tall. Red clover can get up to 18". The micro clover pipolina is one that I personally like and only gets 2-3" tall..

In difficult spots subterranean clover can survive. It's an interesting species as it's seeds are formed underground like a peanut.

Wow, I appreciate the detailed response! How did you come to learn so much about plants?

It's been my career for over 3 decades now. I have traveled the globe as an expert on the subject until the constant travel messed up my health. Been to every continent but Antartica. Currently I am running my own business selling seeds farmers/others as the most overqualified salesman around.
