Expert Response

CSU Extension is researching clover lawns so we can better answer questions about water use, establishment and durability. In general, clover will need some supplemental irrigation in the summer and may establish best when planted into existing turfgrass. It may not have the traffic tolerance of other turf species. Two great things about clover are that it naturally provides nitrogen to the soil and is a pollinator plant. You can buy clover seed at local garden centers or online.
