Product description
Lawn Clover Seeds
Lawn Clover is a popular ground-cover planting option valued for its attractive green foliage, small rounded leaves, and delicate flowers. Clover is often grown in lawns, garden borders, and open spaces as an alternative or companion to traditional turfgrass. Depending on the species and variety, clover can support pollinators and help improve soil fertility through its natural nitrogen-fixing ability. Choose a suitable clover variety for your local climate, lawn use, and growing conditions before planting.

Step 2: Sow the Seeds
Distribute the seeds evenly using the rate recommended for the identified clover variety. Cover them only lightly if instructed, because excessive burial can reduce emergence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find helpful answers about lawn clover seed planting, lawn coverage, and maintaining a clover lawn.
How much clover seed do I need for a lawn?
The amount depends on the clover species, whether you are starting a new lawn or overseeding existing grass, and the coverage rate recommended by the seed supplier. Measure the lawn area and follow the package's sowing rate rather than using one rate for every clover variety.
Can you mix clover seeds with grass seed for a lawn?
Yes, suitable clover varieties such as white clover are commonly mixed with compatible turfgrass. The best combination depends on your climate, sunlight, intended lawn use, and maintenance preferences. Check the recommended proportions and sowing instructions for both seed types before mixing them.
Does clover grow back every year in a lawn?
Many commonly used lawn clovers, including white clover, are perennial and can regrow under suitable conditions. Persistence depends on the species, climate, soil, mowing, moisture, and foot traffic. Some annual clovers behave differently, so confirm the variety on the seed package before expecting year-after-year growth.
