Sub Clover

Narrikup

Narrikup is a very vigorous mid-late season subterraneum clover (ssp. subterraneum).

TOLERANCE TO REDLEGGED EARTH MITE

Narrikup is best suited to well-drained,moderately acid (pH CaCl2 4.5 – 6.5) soils in areas of southern Australia with approximately 500-700 mm mean annual rainfall and where the growing season extends to mid-November.

Emerging seedlings of Narrikup suffer less damage from redlegged earth mite than older subterraneum clovers.

Narrikup has high winter production, driven by strong seedling regeneration
