When's the last time you sat or laid in your lawn?
I lie in my clover yard frequently with my dog. Way less poky than grass.
My definition of lawn includes clover I just don’t want it to be a monoculture. Some of the no lawns people are adamant about not having grass at all and plant thyme and other plants that handle a bit of abuse but not dogs playing ball.
There are native grasses too. My clover mix that I made, which i finished off this year so I dont remember what it was, was just a blended native grass and dutch clover. Ive hella violets too that just grow. And, its fun, I realized ive three types of clover in my yard, the white, the purple, and a native yellow!
Same here, about 2/3 of our lawn has a fair bit of clover mixed in, though we have a few patches of pure grass that is also very soft (I’ve no idea what it is, came with the house).
