I am wanting to trim down some of the Clover that is growing in certain areas. But I also want it to reseed itself. Do I need to wait until it dies or if I cut it now will those areas I trim not come back?
In the fall I spread a 50lb bag of crimson clover over about 4 acres. I have tortoises and iguanas and this has been a excellent food source for them. Plus it is beautiful and buzzing with bees.
Thank you! Looking forward to spreading more seeds of native wildflowers this fall!

the seeds disperse after the flowers have died off and the seed pods loosen and scatter, usually 60-90 days.
If you can, I would wait and only mow/trim back in the mid-to-late fall, or just plan on scattering more seed this next fall.
