Clover

I would much rather have the clover than the creeping charlie. First time in 7yrs. that our yard looked like one big flowerbed with all the clover flowering. Maybe it will choke out the creeping charlie that I can't control by any means. I'll keep the clover because the deer love it and it will encourage them to browse in my yard more often.

There is tons of clover in every yard on my block! Not the sweet pink kind, either, that we used to pick and suck out the nectar, it's the white kind. It's pretty but I'd prefer the pink. I kind of hate to mow it, too. What really killed me was having to mow over the beautiful violets. I let them grow as long as I could, hoping they'd throw out some seeds.

Either someone has gone about the midwest sprinkling clover seed around, or conditions are just right for clover this year. I have noticed it in abundance in our community, and I like it very much. I like the rich dark green, and the cute little flowers. I do not like the honey bees it attracts, however.

I used to get a lot of clover in the flower bed but haven't seen any in awhile now. I am not sure what type of weather they like or even if they like certain type of weather. Maybe they don't like hot and dry? haha

I have lots of clover here too, and I don't mind. It's green, right? Also, the bunnies love it, and I'm hoping it will keep them from trying to get into my few garden plants!

Oh, man! I've seen that, yep... right in my front yard! That stuff just loves to take over! I used to love clover but not anymore! Clover takes over! Sounds like a political headline, huh? Well, it does! I'm always pulling up some clover whenever I'm gardening in that area. I've been able to keep it at bay, at least the larger clover variety. That little stuff, nope. I'm thinking I might have to resort to chemicals and I really don't want to do that. I have just tried planting Bermuda grass seed and Zoysia grass. If that doesn't squeeze out the clover, nothing will! Maybe it has to do with the amount of rainfall we've had this year. So much rain! I don't know. I guess it just got the perfect amounts of rain, sun and temperature to go nuts.

I have lots of "weeds" in my back yard, but no clover. Wish I had some. Did you know you can make clover tea from the flowers?

Oh my yard is awful with clovers. I truely think I have more weeds than grass growing in my back yard. And moss to my yard is just a mess lol.

We bought our home ten years ago. We started with nothing but dirt when our home was put in. We had to sew our own grass seed before closing the loan at the bank. We bought grass seed and planted it and it looks like we have everything but grass. We have tons of clover and crab grass. We are going to buy some lawn plugs that will take care of that problem some time next year, we hope. I have noticed alot of new weeds this year too though.

We have clover. I think its' so pretty! My kids found a couple of 4 leaf clovers a few weeks ago. I agree, there does seem to be more of it around than usual.

We have 2 kinds of clover around these parts. The nice, normal clover with the white or purpley pooffy flowers and another kind I call "sticker clover" with little yellow flowers that form big NASTY stickers. About 20 years ago I spent a couple of years pulling all the clovers I found in my yard out because I knew they were the latter kind. I also pulled the wild carrots because they don't produce nice anything and are the source of what we calle "begger's lice" a small, soft but very sticky sticker. I'm sure since that time I've gotten some back in, but just like the year I went out and pulled dandilions, and again, in 2000 when I sprayed herbacide to kill more dandy's, they have come back in. But never in the same way as before. Just like I hit the fire ants with Amdro and ran all the beds out of my yard. Mind you, my yard isn't great - in fact, the back is mostly just dirt now - but at least I don't have the same number of things that stick me or the dogs. I went after the stickers because at the time we had a big, dumb border collie mix. She was inbeded with stickers and begger's lice and her coat had to be cut off. I went after the fire ants because I'm allergic to them.

so many people have respond the post,the post contain content of the very nice clover,as if we are smelL the aroma of the grass which attracted all the men and women go the it.haha
