Microclover® is a very tiny, specially developed white clover designed to grow in perfect harmony with lawn grasses. Unlike traditional clover, Microclover® has uniquely small leaves, enabling it to sit neatly among the grass, spreading evenly throughout the lawn and delivering a perfectly balanced, green finish that looks just like a traditional lawn – only better. Ace Lawn creates an incredibly multi-purpose lawn, making it ideal for family-use and high traffic areas.
By not mowing your lawn and leaving the Microclover® to flower Ace Lawn adds to your lawn biodiversity attracting natural pollinators like bees & butterflies.

All grass varieties used in Johnsons mixtures are premium amenity quality, chosen for their proven performance in UK lawns. While specific cultivars (individual named strains within a species) may occasionally vary depending on seed availability from season to season, we will only substitute cultivars with others that offer the same high level of performance.
Tetraploid perennial ryegrass represents a significant advancement in amenity turf breeding, offering enhanced stress tolerance, rapid establishment, and exceptional resilience. Developed through selective breeding programmes such as those pioneered by DLF, tetraploid cultivars carry double the chromosome number of traditional diploid ryegrasses, resulting in a range of performance benefits ideally suited to modern lawn and landscape demands.
Tetraploid perennial ryegrasses are used selectively within Johnsons Lawn Seed mixtures to:
Improve durability and recovery rate
Enhance drought and wear tolerance
Support rapid establishment in new lawns and overseeding applications
Maintain consistent turf quality under variable conditions
These cultivars are fully amenity-grade and subject to rigorous quality assessment by the STRI.
Microclover® is a very tiny white clover. The unique small leaved clover is developed (by DLF Seeds, parent company of Johnsons Lawn Seed) specifically for use together with lawn grasses and has a special ability to grow in between the grass plants, keep an even distribution over the lawn and supply the grass with the nitrogen needed. Furthermore, it keeps the lawn dense and thereby it decreases the amount of weeds and the amount of work you need to put into it.
Microclover® grows quite aggressively and is very well suited with the latest fine leaved, dense, high quality perennial ryegrasses (most common grass variety used in lawn mixtures). Microclover® is adapted to a wide range of climatic and soil conditions tolerating wet and shade conditions, as well as drought. However, it can only tolerate wet conditions as long as the area is not flooded for long periods.
Example of Microclover in STRI trial plots:
Suitable for both new and existing lawns, including high traffic and pet-friendly areas.
Apply between March & October, when soil is warm above 10°C and grass is actively growing. For best results, apply straight after mowing and remove clippings to ensure excellent seed-to-soil contact.
Use a rate of 35g per m2 fo a new lawn and 20g per m2 for overseeding an existing lawn.
Handy guide: one average handful is approx 32g
