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
Is this seed strong enough to cope with dog urine?
Whilst this is a hardy mix and is pretty self sufficient, unfortunately no grass seed is immune to the effects of dog urine.
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.
