[QUOTE="neilo, post: 8133548, member: 348"] I've done a similar mix a few times. Very few Crimson clover plants will make it through a winter IME. I put two fields in last year containing Crimson, Persian and Red clovers, and only the red has made it through what was a very mild winter, as expected. I'd certainly go for IRG rather than Westerwolds. Last year's mix had Westerwolds and it shot to head after taking a light first cut, before I got lambs into it again, to teh extent that it had set viable seed that it was shedding in August. It was like a carpet of new Westerwolds in the Autumn. That's OK for this field, but not if you are wanting to reseed with decent grass after. No experience of vetches. [/QUOTE]
