5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Backyard!
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2024
We have been planting and replanting tall fescue every year for 30 years. It always looked good and then died off. This clover came up in several days, is a beautiful brilliant green, and mows nicely. I like that it adds nitrogen to the soil and will help the ground, the bees, and look pretty. Always assumed clover was a weed and should be removed for serious yard people. Give this a a go and rethink what yards are supposed to be. This clover is beautiful!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars It won my wife over
Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2024
Great product. I recommend trying to seed just before gentle rain events. My wife was worried it would take over the yard but after she saw it growing she asked me to plant more. Very lush, very beautiful. It keeps coming back ever since we planted it. Backyard where it took strongly requires no fertilizer or pesticide and I water less than I did with just fescue. The clover accentuates the grass, but doesn't allow weeds to grow. Grows back rapidly after being mowed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick way to stabilize bare spots and erosion damage
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2024
I had a lawn with lots of white clovers before, and I liked how they looked (bright green) and how well they spread. As a plus, they will produce white flowers that attract pollinators.

On a new property, the backyard was severely damaged (dirt spots, erosion damage, weeds), plus the town has water usage limits in place, so I needed a quick and efficient solution to develop some green cover. This product can develop sprouts in as little as 2 days, so there is less need to water for days waiting for sprouts to take place, and within 10 days, you can see a nice little green cover where it was spread, further reducing your water demand.

I also liked that the seeds are more like little spherical pellets than typical grass seeds, making them easier to spread by hand and attracting fewer birds.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little patchy but I love it so far!

Let me give you the lowdown on this clover seed. ????⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently tried out some clover seed for my garden, and I must say, it's been quite impressive. The seeds germinated quickly and the clover plants have been thriving. They've added a beautiful touch of green to my garden and have attracted some lovely pollinators like bees and butterflies. ???????? The only reason I'm giving it four stars instead of five is because I found that it required a bit more maintenance than I expected. The clover tends to spread quickly, so I had to keep an eye on it to prevent it from taking over other plants. But overall, if you're looking to add some natural beauty and attract pollinators to your garden, this clover seed is definitely worth considering. ????????

One thing I really appreciate about this clover seed is its versatility. It can be used for various purposes, such as ground cover, erosion control, or even as a nitrogen-fixing cover crop. ???????? It's a great option for areas that need some extra greenery or for those who want to improve the soil quality in their garden. The seeds are easy to sow and the germination rate is quite high. Plus, clover is known for its ability to enrich the soil by adding nitrogen, which can benefit other plants in your garden. So, if you're looking for a multi-purpose seed that adds beauty and improves soil health, give this clover seed a try. ????????⭐⭐⭐⭐

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for our yard with kids
Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2024
We had ripped out a lot of English ivy. The ivy was like a carpet. Wild, anyway, the clover strouted within a day. I made sure to put it down when we expected rain. It's a little slow to grow at first but once established, it's great. We live in the upstate of SC so it can get cold, but also scorching hot. It keeps the dirt from drying out and tolerates the heat well. If we get a week of heat and no rain, I will water it. Overall though, it's pretty and covers well. Mows well too

5.0 out of 5 stars It’s green, it’s soft, and boy it grows fast.
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2024
Germination for my back yard was the next day keeping the ground moist as directed. And on the fourth day they were green, soft and Fragile and I mowed around these little puppies. Great alternative to whatever grass you were trying to grow last year.

3.0 out of 5 stars There were larger clover like leaves in the mix
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2024
I liked that it was easy to grow. I literally threw the seeds in the grass before a rain and they grew. The plants that came up, however had an additional plant in there that has taken over my yard. It is a type of clover, but grows taller and has no flowers. I have seen some of the typical clover in my yard, but the other species that was in the mix is invasive and overtaking the other clover. It was a little disappointing.

We have severe erosion in our backyard nothing except for creeping Charlie can take hold in our dusty soil. This product was easy to work with, clean small seeds, and the clover started to sprout in about five days with pretty much no effort and some well timed rain. Use it. It works. The clover sprouts are even powering through my 135 pound hounds almost hourly “showers”
