I moved to clover. Fast growing, pulls N from the air, so there no need to ever fertilize again.

How did you go about implementing it? If you do a little here and a little there, does it just take over?

My yard got wrecked by a front loader during an outdoor project. I just reseeded with clover. Had a few other bare spots from lack of rain and raked up the soil and seeded there. It hasn't taken over everything yet, but that's the goal. Bonus is that the seeds are incredibly cheap (or were, haven't looked recently).

It's also slow growing, so don't need to mow as often.
