    I keep hearing commericals for them advertising to kill clover. Always annoys me. If clover grows in your yard, your yard likely needs the nutrients (nitrogen likely). Also, it helps bee populations, which helps well... Life.

    Clover was never a weed until weed killer came around out and killed it with everything else in the grass. So they started an ad campaign that told people it was a weed and convinced people that white flowers in your yard look bad.

    So now everytime I hear an advertisement that mentions killing clover I remind myself not to buy products by the brand who says it. Also, clover honey is delicious.

    I love clover! So much softer than grass. I like Moss more, looks the nicest!

    Clover is better at retaining moisture too. So yards with lots of clover tend to stay green longer in dry periods, which also helps life. Keep things cooler too.

    Grass is really just awful ground cover.

    That's fair, and my old house I didn't mind having clover all over my yard, some people just want straight grass though, then they want to cut cross hatches in it. Everybody's got to have a hobby and grass cutting is less annoying the older you get.
