Other white clovers looks considerably different to turf grass as the leaf blades are twice the size and may stand out like a sore thumb. Miniclover will flower once a year in the summer for about 1 month if it is not mowed. Miniclover is very low maintenance and it helps to carry this characteristic to what ever it may be planted with. For many, this is an optimal height and thus will not need to be mowed from then on! Even better, after the first few mowings, your Miniclover will be trained to only grow to a height of ~3 inches. Miniclover reaches a mature height of only 4 - 6 inches. Miniclover permanently fertilizes the sward, thus increasing its wear tolerance. In the opinion of many turf managers, the wear tolerance of turf containing Miniclover® is superior to traditional lawn grasses. Of course, all at no cost to you, in terms either of money or of maintenance., and so there is no risk of leaching, nor is there a risk of fertilizer burning in the field. The nitrogen is therefore available when and where it is needed. The nitrogen continues to be released into the soil during the growing season until the first night frosts occur. Mixed with grasses, Miniclover® grows around the grass plants and feeds your grass nitrogen for you. However, it can only tolerate wet conditions as long as the area is not flooded for long periods. It tolerates wet and partially shady conditions, as well as drought. Waste less! The cost of either adding Miniclover to an existing lawn seed mix or replacing a lawn completely is typically recovered during the first year. Requires less fertilizer and less water than traditional grass.
