    A clover lawn however does still require maintenance and It is not a catch-all solution to a no effort lawn. You will have other weeds growing that will get very tall very fast as they aren’t competing with anything and you do still need to water a clover lawn or you will end up with more tall weeds.

    Other than that, slay.

      I do find it more enjoyable to take care of a biodiverse lawn with animals in it than the traditional grass lawn, even if the work were equal.

        Fair enough! I’m going to be filling my back yard spots with clover as well next season, hoping to help with my dog eliminating her favorite pee spots haha

          Ive let a bunch of natural stuff grow and its maybe a half dozen different ground cover type things. I’m not really a gardener, but my cat and dog like it at least and I started seeing squirrels and such playing back there too.

          I need to plan to plant clover next spring too now you mention it. I saw some seed mixes that include small flowers too, I’m not sure if that makes sense where I live yet but its interesting for sure.
