Dwarf Clover Seeds for Low-Maintenance Lawns and Cover Crops, Pre-Inoculated Pelleted Seed for Dense Growth

Dwarf clover seeds create dense, deep green ground cover that helps suppress weeds and mixes naturally into a grass lawn. The low-growing foliage reaches just 3–6 inches when left unmown, while periodic mowing keeps the planting shorter and lush.

This cold-hardy perennial tolerates shade, wet and drought conditions, foot traffic and very low mowing. Its nitrogen-fixing ability helps feed a mixed lawn, while deep roots break up clay and reach farther for water. The seed is pelleted and pre-inoculated, ready for lawn overseeding or cover-crop planting.
