Does anyone have any thoughts on a clover yard? I'm more interested in having a greener yard and less cutting the grass!

Not an expert here, but I was researching the possibility, too. My worry is it seems the clover may poop out part of the year. I hope I am,wrong. Micro-clover, which you can buy seed for thru Amazoncom, is shorer-growing. Some other ground covers intrigue me as well, including Creeping Thyme and English lawn daisies. Asiatic Jasmine is alsp easy, but maybe best paired with stepping stones, growi thing a little above ankle height.

Maybe plant clover, watch how it does and take written notes on gaps in planting areas or seasons, then research options for filling any gaps.

I love the smell of clover I used to have a lot of it . I was flooded during Florence with salt water and diesel fuel and haven't seen any this year .

I am working on a clover yard. Have 'wild' clover, added clover seed this spring - just have to work out the other grasses.
Some of the clover species do get tall but are green, just be careful of the bees.

@KITDFOHS I don't mind the bees but my Yorkies are having a little bit of a problem..... 😁 I know I shouldn't laugh but they just won't listen when I tell them not to play with the bees.... 🤔🤣
Actually, I thought (when I started on this clover adventure) that there would be more bees but there have not been that many. I did get this picture today

I'm all about that! 🙂

Yes indeed! There's plenty of low/slow growing plants that you can put in instead of the typical "grass" lawns. Do explore them and keep us posted!

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.

Posted by 1patriotOne of the main reasons for last year’s ‘spike’, which the media and government agencies have avoided mentioning, is the Hunga Tonga volcano eruption two years ago.
