I have clover coming up everywhere I put it.

This is a good seed bag for clover, however I was unaware that there’s not just white Dutch clover in this bag which is my fault but for anyone else; this has a handful of other plant species in here. I can’t tell if a lot of the weeds in this mix are solely from the mix or from weeds in properties around mine but I’ve been doing a lot of weeding to the planted patch. A couple notes on this species of clover; it LOVES water. That’s how you’ll get seeds to sprout and grow quickly. I can’t tell yet how drought hardy it’ll be but it for sure isn’t a fan of full day sun exposure. Where the bare spot is gets sun all day long and we’ve had days over 100 quite a bit. The clover is still growing but it’s very patchy and slow growing in those spaces. The fully planted space was planted a couple weeks before the more bare space but you can tell all the growth along the edge of the more bare patch is what’s growing best regardless with the higher amount of shade.So IMO nothing wrong with the quality of this seed mix, but know this does best with at least partial shade and there are other seeds in here that aren’t clover. I’ve included the most prevalent plant of it sprouting right with the clover as well as how it looks mature and amongst the clover. A good addition I think because it’s very tolerant of traffic. The clover itself is okay to be walked on, it’ll bounce back up and not die but it is delicate and could be torn up a lot from anything over a calm walk. I’d suggest stepping stones for frequently used paths and probably not the best for kids or pets running around.

J'ai fait tremper les semences 24 heures avant de les étendre sur la terre, Alors très bon rendement , a poussé rapidement et comme ça, ne se répandent pas partout.

El producto se veía bien y llegó a tiempo pero era sólo una libra en vez de 5 y tuve que devolverlo. El vendedor fue atento, la atención clara y eficiente y en unos días ya me habían hecho el reembolso.

I have gone through several of these bags. I find that the seeds germinate within two to three days and as long as you keep them moist the first few days at least, they grow really well, even in poor soil. I have never had a problem with these seeds not growing. The plants make beautiful white flowers that bumblebees love, and sadly some wild rabbits seem to like them too. I have not seen any other seeds in the package. Also I live in Calgary Canada, zone 3, and the plants survive a nasty winter fine. If you water them well they do make seeds and also spread. And yes they do push out dandelions and bluebells and other things, but I find that only happens if you have a large enough cluster of clover. One individual plant may get swamped by grass around it if yo water it lots, but a cluster that you water well will expand.

Conditions I had when planting:- very sandy, extremely poorly maintained/fertilized soil, mid-Atlantic coast- mixture of sparse clover patches, mixed wild violets, some weeds, and an absolutely awful conglomeration of about a dozen different grass types, including the misfortune of highly invasive bermuda- June, coming off the end of one month of drought, some very large patches of dead grassWhat I did:I raked the entire lawn with garden (not leaf) rake to break up and remove thatch. I probably should have taken more care to rake up all willow oak leaves as they never break down. It is very important that the seeds have a clear path to make contact with the soil. I mixed two pounds of this with a medium-sized bag of Scotts Lawn Thick'r, which mostly fertilizer and soil conditioner but does have some grass seed. I spread it by hand (put some in a cup and just walked back and forth shaking it out; my lawn is small and spreaders are expensive). I watered with a hose by hand 2-3 times a day for 1.5 weeks, heavy rains came after one week.Results:The pictures attached are days 10 and 20. I am very happy with the results. It has now been a full month, and the clover is almost tall enough to start getting clipped when I mow. All of the cotyledons (generic germination leaf) have been replaced with the typical three-leaf pattern.I would estimate that under ideal growing conditions the germination rate is over 80%, potentially as high as 90-100%. However, that requires a MASSIVE amount of moisture. I would highly recommend planting this right before several days of steady rain. Clover germinates in 2-3 days, and at a week in I had only about 5% germination, and only in the most ideal growing areas. I was shocked when we had heavy rains after a week and three days later the lawn was covered. If you don't have a built in irrigation system I would recommend working with nature and not planting this as drought recovery like I did. Summer planting in my area was fine with adequate watering.My goal was to more evenly disperse clover throughout the lawn, fill in some bare spots, and end up with a more uniform-looking lawn instead of having random clumps of varying grass spread throughout. This appears to do the trick, and should work well for repairing the soil and feeding wildlife. This is my first summer here, and I look forward to seeing what it looks like next year when the plants have fully matured.
