I have had good luck with both New Zealand White and Dutch White clovers.
You can't walk on them much while they establish, but after that they
handle quite a bit of traffic. They also tolerate some shade. The nitrogen
rich mulch that comes from mowing them is a bonus, but you won't get tons
because they only grow a few inches tall.

So how long does it take to establish them? Can they be established through frost seeding, or do you have to wait to till the paths? Thanks -Allan
