If your existing lawn is somewhat tired, weedy, or showing dead spots, you may still wish to just overseed it with miniclover.
With increasingly strict water rationing in most of our immediate futures, there is a lawn alternative that requires irrigation no more than once a week and can make do with even less. This alternative to green grass is miniclover, also known as micro clover. I learned about miniclover from a company in Oregon known as Outsidepride Seed SourceDutch or white clover is probably familiar to you.
Enter miniclover. Miniclover is the same species as conventional white clover , except its leaves are half the size. Like the conventional type, it is recommended for toughening up a lawn since it quickly germinates to fill in bare spots but may also be used to overseed a lush, but perpetually thirsty or weedy, lawn.
Another miniclover advantage is that it flowers far less than conventional white clover. Clover flowers are a powerful magnet to bees and if you have small children who want to play in it, or if you want to walk barefoot in it, the fewer flowers the better. Moreover, if you mow your miniclover every now and then, you will not see any flowers at all. When planted as a monoculture with monthly mowing, miniclover becomes a tight-knit sward of green.
