Sub Clover

Tarlee

Tarlee is a mid-late season sub clover providing a new and improved replacement for Clare and Antas (ssp. brachycalycinum).

BETTER SEED REGENERATION AND DISEASE RESISTANCE FOR MORE FEED

Tarlee is well adapted to neutral to alkaline soils but will perform well in moderately acidic soils (pH CaCl2 6.5-8.5). It has improved seed yield and has shown superior performance over those older varieties after the establishment year. This is due to its improved seed yield and disease resistance resulting in higher regeneration levels over other brachycalycinum varieties. It is best suited to areas with approximately 500-775 mm annual average rainfall. Tarlee establishes rapidly like other brachycalycinums. It can be used as for permanent and semi-permanent pastures in neutral to alkaline soils and where soil-cracking is likely over summer. It can be used in cropping rotations or for specialist hay and silage production due to its outstanding first year production
