First picture is now second picture is from April.
Trying to figure out if I need to be doing something differently and believe this happened last year as well. In spring the yard is lush and beautiful come summer it thins out and looks… viney?
I’m in Maryland so heat certainly comes into play but we really haven’t had a multiple hot weeks yet the only other factor is the tree is a late bloomer so the area is definitely more shaded than it was earlier. Should I be trimming it down more often (honestly haven’t trimmed it at all this year) is it a lack of sunlight?
Appreciate any input or similar experiences

Also don’t worry the native flowers are in the back there not pictured to the left is my native butterfly weed patch and on the other side of my house is my chaos bed.

This is what clover does. It doesn’t fill in as dense as turf.
