Organic Green Manure Alfalfa

Approx. 35g organic green manure seeds per gardener’s packet

Our 100% pesticide-free Alfalfa green manure is organically grown in the UK. Alfalfa has clover-like leaves and is also known as Lucerne. As a member of the pea and bean family, it helps fix nitrogen in the ground. Alfalfa’s roots grow very deep, so it’s an excellent green manure option for drier soils and for breaking up soil pans.

Growing tips: Sow May – August after harvesting a previous crop. Remove any weeds and rake over the plot, scatter seed evenly and rake in. Keep well watered in dry weather until established. Dig in or cover to mulch in the nitrogen-rich foliage before flowering.
