This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

What clover would you need and where to get
A dwarf Dutch Clover like mini or micro clover is what you are looking for. Some It's a smaller form that blends very well with grass and requires very little maintenance.
Some people use standard forage type ladino or Dutch Clover. I have even seen some people use red clover (trifolium pretense).
You can get it by special ordering it online or a local seller with turf grass dealer/distribution contracts.
It's best to buy the seed innoculated and coated.
It's seeded at around 2-3bs/acre so a little goes a long ways.
I liberally spread that stuff in all the dead patches in my yard 2 falls ago. The first year almost nothing but the 2nd year and it has really taken over.
Sometimes growing from seed requires patience. It similarly took the self-heal* I spread in my yard a couple years to pop up, but it's doing great now.
*Not a nitrogen fixer like clover, but unlike clover it is native in my area (iirc it's native to most of the globe) so I generally prefer it.
