Can we talk about how I used to hate lawn clover?
I always saw clover as a pesky weed that ruined my perfect grass lawn. For years, I spent hours pulling it out or spraying it with stuff. Then, last spring, I noticed the park down the street let clover grow in patches, and it stayed green even when everything else turned brown. A friend told me clover puts good stuff back into the soil, so you don't need as much plant food. I also started seeing more bees and butterflies on the clover flowers, which made me think about helping local bugs. So, I decided to stop fighting it and even spread some clover seeds in my yard. Now, my lawn needs less water and looks full without much work. It's wild how something I tried so hard to kill became my favorite part of the garden.
