✨ Features
- 🌿 Easy Shaker Application: No special tools needed — just open the shaker and spread evenly over your lawn for effortless, consistent coverage.

- 🌾 Natural Weed Suppressor: Its above-ground runners gradually crowd out weeds like dandelions as the lawn fills in.

⏳ What to Expect
With regular watering and soil temperatures of at least 50–60°F, seeds typically germinate within 1–2 weeks. Plants stay small for the first couple of months — that's normal. After the first full growing season, your Flawn will establish its low-flowering characteristics. Fully mature flowering lawns, particularly in dense or heavily fertilised grass, can take 6–24 months to completely fill in.
🪜 How to Seed Your Flawn
- Prepare: Mow your existing grass down to 0.5" and lightly rake to loosen the soil surface.
- Spread: Shake the Micro Clover evenly across the prepared area — no special equipment needed.
- Water: Water lightly but frequently after seeding. Keep the soil and seedlings consistently moist until established.
📅 Seeding Timing: Best seeded in spring, late summer, or early fall. For dormant seeding, spread over fresh snow on a calm day when the ground is frozen. In spring, wait until soil temperatures reach around 55°F. Avoid seeding just before hot, dry periods.
🌾 Bare Soil Areas: This seed is designed to be over-seeded into existing grass for a mixed lawn (roughly half grass, half clover). For bare soil, consider adding 2–4 lbs of fine fescue grass seed per 1,000 sq ft, or increase seeding rates for a pure clover lawn.
🛠️ Maintaining Your Flawn
- ✂️ Mowing: Mow at 2–3 inches during the first year. Once established, mow higher for a wilder look with more blooms, or shorter for a neater, traditional appearance.
- 🚫 No Pesticides: Avoid weed killers and insecticides. Hand-weed where needed.
- 💧 Watering: Only needed during extended dry periods once fully established.
- 🌿 Fertilizer: None required once Micro Clover is established.
