SOD INSTALLATION in FRISCO, TX

Zoysia grass or Zoysiagrass is a popular shade tolerant grass species used in the north Dallas area and mid to deep southern portions of the United States. It’s a fine to medium-coarse leaf textured warm-season perennial grass that stays green in the spring, summer, fall and goes dormant (turns brown) in winter. It greens up in the spring before and goes dormant in the winter after Bermuda grass. Zoysia grass is used on high quality golf courses, sports fields, commercial and residential properties and more.

Pros: High tolerance to heat, cold, shade, weeds, insects and diseases. Dense carpet like cushion surface gives it a high-end look and feel that repels weeds better than other grasses. Zoysia requires less water than St. Augustine grass, has a higher shade tolerance than Bermuda grass and requires less frequent mowing and fertilizing compared to other grass varieties. Zoysia can be grown from sod, sprigs and from seeds in certain varieties.

Cons: Costs more than other grass varieties and is sold only by the pallet rather than single pieces. Requires more water than Bermuda grass and is less available. Zoysia tends to accumulate thatch if lawn clippings aren’t bagged frequently.
