Description

Our No Mow Lawn & Microclover Seed Mix is the perfect solution for a self-sustaining lawn. The lawn features our No Mow Grass, a mix of low-growing grasses that are soft and highly resilient. Microclover has been gaining popularity around the world as a natural solution for healthy, low-maintenance lawns. This durable, easy-to-grow mix is a great option for high traffic areas like home lawns, athletic fields, parks, and even slopes. It will grow in full sun to partial shade. It thrives in light to moderate shade, including under trees with indirect light. It can also tolerate growing under black walnut trees and spruce trees, if the walnuts and pine needles are removed.

This quick-growing lawn will germinate in about 10-14 days when the conditions are right; the cool season grasses establish best in spring or fall.

This mix is best for use in the Northeast, Mid Atlantic, Midwest, and Pacific Northwest. For states along the southern US border and warmer zones, we recommend warm season grasses.

Planting & Care

For a natural look, you can skip mowing altogether. For a more manicured look, mow as little as twice a year – once in spring and once in fall when grass is most actively growing. To train the Microclover to grow with an even more compact form, mow a few times when the clover reaches 3-4" tall during it's first growth flush, then reduce mowing to maintenance. 

Do not use fertilizer, as it will cause grass to become tall and leggy. This lawn mix is resistant to spots from pet urine. 

When To Plant:
The clover and cool season grasses in this mix prefer cooler temperatures for germination and growth, so spring and fall are the best time to plant; avoid planting at the hottest time of year. In spring, you can sow as early as two weeks before your last frost date. In fall, sow at 4-6 weeks prior to your first average frost date, so that perennial clover plants have time to establish root systems before freezes hit. In spring you’ll have more weed pressure; planting in fall allows you to avoid the germination time of most weeds.

Soil Preparation:
For the best success with your new planting, we recommend removing existing growth and preparing soil for planting.

Watering:
All new plantings should be kept damp for best results with germination. Water enough to ensure your soil doesn’t fully dry out in between. Once seedlings appear after about 2 weeks, watering can be reduced.

Maintenance:
The benefit of growing Microclover in your lawn is that it does not need fertilizer! Avoid the use of herbicides as they will damage or kill Microclover. For a natural look, skip mowing altogether, or mow as little as twice a year for a neat look – once in spring and once in fall when grass is most actively growing. Mow at most once per month, or when grass reaches 5-6 inches tall; do not mow lower than 3.5-4 inches. Do not use fertilizer, as it will cause grass to become taller and leggy. Over time, if thatch builds up to the point where dead grass is visible and the grass begins to thin out, the lawn should be de-thatched in mid-spring before growth begins.

Sowing Seeds:
Using the recommended coverage rate, scatter seeds densely and gently compress seeds for good seed to soil contact. We recommend reserving about 10-15% of seeds so that you can fill patches that may occur.

Reviews

Love it!

"I used this mix to fill in some bare spots in my lawn. It grew quickly and is lovely! I plan to add more next year!"

— Greenspace (5/5)

After carefully establish the

"l after carefully establishing the lawn area the first season we had a normal winter with approximately 10 feet of snow. The clover did not return and most of the grass died off. What did come back with clump grass? I added fertilizer and a topper for year two with very mixed results. We live within the zone recommend recommendations for the seed mix and very disappointed."

— Heidi (2/5)

Lovely!

"Spread seeds on Saturday. Started to see sprouts a week later. I'm in "always rainy" Houston. Will order more!!!"

— Lazygardener (5/5)

I'm coming back for more.

"In just over 8 weeks my brand new (and naked) lawn had lush lawn and microclover growing. In all, I think I watered this seed mix for 30 minutes daily for the next 10 - 14 days. Wildlife is loving my lawn, and I'm loving how maintenance free this is going to be in my life."

— Bender (5/5)

Great Customer Service

"We bought the micro clover grass mixture and seeded the second week of April. We covered lightly with straw and watered daily. Germination was patchy & less than 10%. As we had bought 10 lbs of expensive seed I called American Meadows after 5 weeks for help. American Meadows replaced my seed!! We have since reseeded and it is doing amazing. The customer service with American Meadows is some of the best I've seen. We live in Nevada high desert."

— Farmer (4/5)

I love this product

"I planted micro clover/grass seed mix in a troublesome lawn area… very acidic, lots of moss, giant red oak trees. I covered the area with topsoil and planted the seed, straw for a light cover and watered daily. The seed germinated quickly and is becoming thicker over these past 6 weeks. Very pleased with the outcome!"

— Tigergirl (5/5)

Beautiful lawn

"Turned our scrubby back yard to a soft green oasis."

— Ellie (5/5)

Just clover

"I didn't follow directions, not recommended for overseeding which is what I did. 2 ways I know of to get rid of existing lawn is to burn with fertilizer or rent/pay to scrape or roto till. Neither r cheap, both require alot of money and time. I just cut grass on lowest setting, rented dethatcher and used that and then rented a scarifyer, think that's how it's spelled, and used that. Did all that in one day, next morning cut grass on lowest setting again and then overseeded. The existing grass protects seeds to some degree from birds and helps stop sun and wind from drying out soil. And with money saved from starting over, I can buy extra seed next year to fix areas that might need help. I have 3 dogs, not going to stop using yard while growing new grass. Is what it is. . I seem to have same issue as most reviews, all clover and no grass growing. So next time I'm just going to buy clover here and go somewhere else for grass seed."

Micro clover grass seed mix

"I had very high hopes for this seed. Our contractor purchased the original 50 lbs and I purchased an additional 15 lbs. Very little has germinated, very patchy. At this point we are dissatisfied with this product."

"Fescue $ clove both germinated within a week"
