DoubleRoot is the world’s first hybrid clover to combine White and Caucasian clover. The result is a highly-durable clover that can be paired with grass to provide free clean nitrogen and reduce the need for chemical fertilisers in amenity settings. 

DoubleRoot also impresses with its ability to tolerate drought and for withstanding freezing temperatures down to -30°C.

AberSustain

AberSustain has been developed to provide amenity spaces with a self-sustaining grass and clover mixture that delivers environmentally and economically. Germinal’s DoubleRoot hybrid clover has been blended with a mixture of grass varieties to create a mix that fixes its own nitrogen, offers drought resistance, binds soil and yields other benefits.

A18

A18 is tailored for road verges and embankments. Several resilient grass varieties have been combined in A18, with DoubleRoot hybrid clover included to fix 150kg N/ha each year. This makes A18 a climate-smart solution by minimising the need for nitrogen fertiliser. Other benefits are rapid establishment, performance on variable soil types and gradients, and suitability for government specifications.
