Pipolina Microclover® (Trifolium repens)is a versatile and eco-friendly ground cover that is increasingly popular for use within lawns. It is a small-leaved variety of clover, that forms dense, low-growing mats perfect for creating lush, green and low-maintenance lawns when mixed with lawn grasses. Micro clover is an excellent choice for homeowners and landscapers seeking a sustainable alternative to traditional 100% grass lawns.
One of the main advantages of micro clover is its nitrogen-fixing ability. As a legume, it naturally converts atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use, enriching the soil and reducing the need for additional fertilisers. This feature not only cuts costs but also promotes a healthier, more sustainable garden environment. Micro clover also requires less water and mowing compared to conventional lawn, making it highly suitable for water-conscious gardeners and those seeking a low-effort lawn solution.
In use within lawns, micro clover provides a soft, lush, and bladed ground cover that tolerates foot traffic well, especially in mixed grass lawns. It blends seamlessly with grass, enhancing the lawn’s overall appearance with its vibrant green colour. Micro clover is particularly beneficial in shady or partially shaded areas where traditional grass may struggle to thrive. It also helps reduce soil erosion and weed growth by forming a dense, competitive lawn.
Maintenance is minimal; micro clover requires infrequent mowing and little fertilisation, making it an attractive landscape option. Its resilience to pests and diseases and low mowing heights adds to its appeal as a sustainable, low-maintenance component of a lawn. A perennial, depending on soil texture and fertility it should last for many years.
