Product Description

ECO: Clover Lawn is an expertly blended lawn seed mixture that will create a beautiful look for your lawn and significantly benefits nature.

Due to the fescue species and the stolon root system of the clover in this mix, it creates a drought-resistant lawn that stays green all year round - even in the frosty winters and intense summer heat! In addition, the clover in this low-maintenance mix acts as a natural fertiliser, meaning it is self-feeding and requires little additional aftercare. And when the clover blooms, it will also attract bees and other beneficial insects to your garden, creating a habitat for local wildlife.

Product Questions

Product Questions

What type of soil is this suitable for? Is it shade tolerant?
Question by: Sam on 8 Mar 2023, 12:17
Hi, thank you for your question. Our ECO Clover Lawn is suitable for all soil types, including poorer soils and compacted soils. It does have some shade tolerance and will cope well in dappled shade.

Hi there,

Is this seed strong enough to cope with dog urine?
Question by: Sarah on 22 Mar 2023, 19:10
Thank you for your question

Whilst this is a hardy mix and is pretty self sufficient, unfortunately no grass seed is immune to the effects of dog urine.

What time of the year is best for overseeding?
Question by: Cath on 23 Mar 2023, 07:54
Thank you for your question.

The grass sowing season is generally from March - September. You can confidently sow grass seed when temperatures are 8-10 degrees and above consistently for at least two weeks with no adverse weather conditions forecast. Always consult a two week forecast prior to sowing.

Will a Clover lawn be more resistant to Schafer grub infestation? We will have to reseed a large lawn this year that has been destroyed by these grubs. This is our second infestation, previously a less severe attack 3 years ago.
Question by: Ailie on 25 Mar 2023, 07:38
Hi, thank you for your question. This is hard to say as most grasses will succumb to the damage eventually. However, the ECO: Clover Lawn is definitely a hardy mix and will not suffer as greatly or as quickly as some other grass varieties.
