00:0010 Reasons Why You Should Be Using Clover As a Ground Cover
00:04Pollinator Magnet
00:06Clover blossoms teem with nectar for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
00:12Self-seeding patches provide early and late-season forage, boosting pollination.
00:17Weed Suppression
00:18Clover's dense, low-canopy-shaped soil, out-competing many weeds, reducing herbicides and hand-weeding.
00:26Occasional edging maintains tidy boundaries.
00:28Drought Tolerance
00:30Deep-rooted clover weathers dry spells, conserving moisture and rebounding quickly,
00:36requiring fewer waterings once established after initial irrigation.
00:40Soft Foot Traffic Friendly
00:42Flexible stems tolerate light foot traffic, ideal between stepping stones or paths,
00:48avoid heavy use, occasionally aerate compacted spots.
00:53Nitrogen Fixation
00:54With Rhizobium partners, Clover fixes atmospheric nitrogen, enriching soil, reducing synthetic fertilizers,
01:01and nourishing nearby vegetables, perennials, and shrubs.
01:06Soil Erosion Control
01:08Dense roots, anchor slopes, and bare patches, reducing runoff and erosion while spreading,
01:14adding organic matter, and improving soil stability.
01:17Low Maintenance
01:19Once established, clover needs minimal care.
01:23Occasional trims suffice, and typical garden pH suits it, reducing mowing, fertilizing, and fuss.
01:30Wildlife Habitat
01:31Clover shelters, ground beetles, and amphibians, supports ground nesting bees, and feeds seed-eating birds, enhancing natural pest control.
01:43Cool Season Greenery
01:44Clover stays green in cool weather, photosynthesizing below 60 degrees Fahrenheit, brightening spring and fall displays when many turf grasses fade.
01:53Versatile Planting Options
01:56Overseed lawns, mix into new turf, or sow ground cover.
02:02Micro Clover stays short, while white Clover forms charming meadow-like patches.
