Beautiful Dark Green Colour the Whole Season Clover takes care that the companion grasses are well feed with nitrogen which makes them look great. At the same time the Microclover itself has a nice darker green colour and together this gives the lawn the most beautiful darker green colour right from spring to autumn. It is recommended to include Microclover in the seed mixture with 5% by weight. Improved Drought Tolerance Inclusion of clover in the grass mixtures has the effect that the soil is shaded a bit more and moisture is retained more in the dry summer. The deep green colour also sustains the overall lush appearance of grass through difficult drought periods.
