Clover in lawns
Again sorry for the broken threading - but I believe advice should be
followed up with the outcome for other's benefit After scarifying my lawn (violently with a Bosch verticutter) I scattered grass seed and a mix of clover seeds (red, white, some other wild white) everywhere. This is how it turned out after mowing (high setting) yesterday, a couple of months later: https://www.flickr.com/photos/timjwa...7645126458178/ This is not and never will be an ornamental lawn. A couple of years ago it looked horrid - lots of bare patched, course grass (you can still see some in the closeups). But I am pleased with the clover. Some of it tends to shoot up high but despite that it still mows OK and the broad leaves give exceelen ground cover underfoot - super on bare feet! Not to everyone's liking but I'm pleased with where this is going. What I'm less pleased with is some of the grass seed I bought (all minus rye grass) is growing very tall and course - whereas other seeds are growing very fine the way I like. Not sure how to avoid that problem - I cannot even remember what went where now... |
