ousoonerfan22 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 I would like to clear a small area around 5 or 6 big oak tree's along a thick creek bottom and plant something next spring.Since this area will be mostly shaded under the oak tree's what should I try clover?

dogdoc Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Re: what to plant in a shaded area? several of your clovers a fairly shade resistant. I've had good luck with red clover in shady areas. I've also had fairly good luck with rye grain in shady areas but this needs to be planted in the fall. best of luck todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 Re: what to plant in a shaded area? Have to agree with Todd on the clovers and rye. Rye will grow about anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thayer Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 Re: what to plant in a shaded area? Your white dutch clovers are very shade tolerant, get them in the ground in fall and hope for adequate moisture for the first year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
