>Hey Carl...I'm zone 4-5 Northern Idaho. I've been doing the clover in
the pathways and seed it in the Fall when the rains start up again, it
sprouts and seems to go dormant under the winter snows and comes in thick
in the spring. There have also been years when it doesn't get a chance
to sprout and the seed lays under the snow and still comes in thick in
the spring. Good luck! Sora at Paradise Valley Organics
