Microclover
Microclover is a small-leaf form of white clover selected for use in maintained turf. Its low-growing, stoloniferous habit allows it to integrate with compatible lawn grasses while adding a fine-textured broadleaf component to the turf stand.
Microclover
A low-growing white clover type developed for integration into maintained turf and lawn systems.
Clover Designed to Fit Into the Lawn
Microclover provides a different approach to maintained turf by combining a low, spreading clover growth habit with compatible lawn grasses.
Small Leaf Size
Microclover produces smaller leaves than traditional white clover, helping it blend more naturally into maintained turf.
Low-Growing Habit
Its stoloniferous growth habit allows plants to spread laterally and remain relatively low within the turf canopy.
Close-Mowing Tolerance
Microclover is suited to regularly maintained lawns and can tolerate relatively close mowing once established.
Nitrogen Contribution
As a legume, successfully nodulated Microclover can biologically fix atmospheric nitrogen within the soil-plant system.
Partial-Shade Potential
Microclover can fit turf areas that receive partial shade, depending on site conditions and the accompanying grass species.
Dense Ground Coverage
Its spreading growth can help occupy open areas in the turf canopy and compete for space where weeds might otherwise establish.
Built for Managed Grass & Clover Lawns
Microclover works differently from a conventional grass-only lawn. Management should allow both the clover and companion turf grasses to establish and remain competitive within the stand.
Turf Management Note: Establishment, persistence and the balance between clover and grass vary with irrigation, soil fertility, mowing, traffic, shade, companion grass species and local growing conditions.
