About EcoEase Microclover and Fescue Mix Alternative Lawn Seed Shaker
Assorted species
Upgrade to a greener, more sustainable lawn with EcoEase Microclover and Fescue Lawn Mix. This low-maintenance alternative combines three fescues and microclover to create a dense, foot-traffic-tolerant groundcover that requires little to no mowing. Thriving in poor soils and partial shade, it uses less water than traditional lawns and eliminates the need for fertilizers or herbicides. Microclover enriches the soil with nitrogen, supports pollinators when blooming, and resists pet spotting, while the mix stays lush and green from early spring to first frost. Perfect for new lawns or overseeding, EcoEase is the eco-friendly way to a beautiful yard.

- Ally U.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars8/25/26Didn’t survive the heat
Easy to get going and looked beautiful when it was lush and green but unfortunately, it didn’t survive the heat. I live in Orange County, CA. I wanted to use it as an alternative to lawn, planted back in October 2025. It’s all dead now in August 2026, I was watering 3 times a week and my water bill was through the roof, even then, this mix died.

- Sandra D.Verified BuyerRated 2 out of 5 stars7/5/26not easy shaker
I thought the top of the lid would have perforated holes to actually shake the seeds out. I gave it to my 10yr old to spread the seeds, and he ended up dumping most of the seeds in 1 spot. And, unfortunately, nothing grew.
