Clover

I'm getting excited about what I plan to do to our lawn. I'm not a big fan of super-manicured lawns (for one, they take too much work), but do like to see green, rather than the yellows and browns associated with my dog's pee. So here's my great idea for my lawn. I'm going to seed it with a mixture that is very high in clover seed. It's green, grows easily, stands up to dog pee, and is rather drought resistant. It fixes nitrogen that the other grasses can use and it smells nice. To top it off, it doesn't need to be mowed as often. I had planned to go buy the seed today, but now the ground is covered with snow. I don't think it will last, but may make the Easter egg hunt difficult.
