Can Not Kill
Reviewed By: Debbie (Bloomington, IN)
Be sure to not plant this anywhere it can spread to a place you don't want it. The underground roots spread quickly and far. Mine traveled to a flower bed and now it is choking out my flowers. I have tried digging it and it just comes back even stronger. Can't even move my flowers to another bed for fear it will transfer to it. It is a beautiful plant with lots of blooms, but not when it gets somewhere you don't want it.

Crown Vetch
Reviewed By: Sandy J (Washburn, Missouri)
I love these plants. Mine started blooming before fall got here last year. They survived our crazy winter here & they are doing great so far this year. I have a bunch of new babies so I am having to be careful with my weedeater. I can not wait till they bloom this year. This is a good investment & they are covering my embankment quite well & I am sure by the time summer is over with my whole embankment will be full of this Crown Vetch & be really beautiful next year & from here out. My neighbours is doing really well this year as well.

Easy from seed
Reviewed By: Rob (Weare, NH)
I was able to easily cover a rough slope with clover-like flowers in one season by top dressing the soil then broadcast seeding. Follow the care instruction on the website and enjoy the results! Prolific and long bloom period.
