Hi. Wondering if Im gonna have a mix of white and red clover instead of grass on the new lawn..
Anybody know how high % of total area that can be clover, and still have a all year green lawn?
I already have clover in the old lawn, but want alot in the new, as much as possible.
Live close to the forrest, and its always nice when a deer come visit :)

Just let it take over. If you let the clover get large it'll keep reseeding and spreading. So don't mow very often.

Your question is geographically specific.
You might want to include information as to what continent you live on. Perhaps your country, and province, state, district or county. Elevation and climate are important when it comes to predicting the outcome of proper cultivation.

Live south in norway, lyngdal, have a long summer and alot of warm weather and enough rain to keep the ground moist, the winter is 2 days with snow :) , and the rest is just rain. Rest of the year its between 5 and 15 degrees celcius. Its good clima for clover, and it grows everywhere. Whas just wondering if I can have like 100% clover lawn, instead of grass?

You will never have straight clover.
Nature does not like a mono culture

Its just a small part of my total lawn area that is this new lawn, so if i have 100% in new with clover, its probably only 15% clover and 85%grass of total area. I will try anyway :)
