Every battle is won with sound strategies -- including in the garden or front yard.
And here is way to potentially win that battle with clover and other natural invaders without resorting to toxic pesticides or driving yourself nuts trying to rip it all out. Why not just let certain patches of it grow -- letting other wild or natural flowers grow along with it?
Then all you have to do is make paths around these natural oases of wild grasses, trees, and shrubs -- as well as natural more refined, cultivated flowers and plants you love.
Certainly the really refined garden of carefully selected plants that you buy at the garden store look beautiful but I was out on a bike ride along the Fraser River today and suddenly realized that many of the natural shrubs and flowers growing there are just as beautiful in the own way. Many of these could be imported into your own garden or front yard to create a yard that could rival anything you buy at the store in beauty. And it is a surrounding that could possibly attract many more pollinating insects and birds to friendly neighborhood you create for them
Complete with patches of flowering white and pink clover carpeting the floor of your miniature forest (which could be easily cultivated and pruned.
