[UK] any recommendations for a lawn that isn't just grass? (lemmy.world)

I need something that isn't grass to plant on my lawn. Ideally something hard wearing and can be mowed because my kids will tear it up aha

I've tried clover but it doesn't seem to have survived a first mow+the summer sun.

TIA

Check the sidebar for more info but the Royal Horticultural Society should have ideas for you.

Try clover again for the fall and winter. You can sow clover seeds until late spring. If necessary, you can start back again in mid summer.
