I have a large (~ 20m x 100m) sloped area at the back of our house that I need to do something with. Right now it's mostly thistles and docks. It's too steep to mow and too expensive to buy loads of ground cover plants/shrubs, so I was thinking of sowing clover seed.
Pro's
Cheap seed
Would look nice and green
White clover doesn't grow high like grass, so wouldn't need mowing???
Clover flowers attract bees
Con's
I've no gardeing experience, - don't know what I'm doing
Clover could take over where I have a nice flat lawn
Would appreciate any advice on whether clover would be suitable - OR - if there are alternatives that would meet the low cost, low maintenance criteria....
