clover

Does anyone know of a product to remove clover from lawns(not my lawn..quite partial to a bit of clover) its the lawns at my place of work,they are being taken over by the stuff.Is there a product available,preferably organic that would rid the lawn of clover,and if so at what time of the year should this be tackled

 

How about just feeding them with summer lawn food. The clover only competes in low nutrient environments thanks to its nitrogen fixing and growing too short to be mowed. Feed and water (if you can) and sit back.

If weedkillers must be used I've had more success against clover when using weedkillers in granular rather than liquid formulations. Don't know why. try Arthur Bowers stuff for starters. It's cheap at least. Whatever you use it'l take a couple of applications, and remember it will inhibit seed germination afterwards so you can't re-sow the lawn for a few weeks.

 

Thanks Jazid, sounds simple,think the first option sounds best..anything to not have to listen to my boss moaning about the clover :rolleyes:

 

there are a number of species which are known as "clover", can you describe the plants in more detail, or provide a photo please.

 

I will take a photo this week,but for now all i can say is its white,and looks like the normal mauve/pink variety, grows about 4"high then flowers and has spread throughout the lawns.
