Grass | Zoysia | El Toro

El Toro was developed at the University of California-Riverside. It has excellent drought tolerance and a unique upright growth habit that allows it to be mowed with a rotatry mower making it easier to maintain than traditional zoysia grasses. It has a medium width leaf blade and beautiful dark green color. It performs well in sun or shade, and maintains its green color well into the fall.

CHARACTERISTICS:
Warm-season grass - leaf texture from fine to medium coarse - color ranges from light to medium green - forms a dense, low maintenance lawn - spreads by stolons and rhizomes - shoot growth rate is slow. Easy to maintain.
 

RECOMMENDED USAGE:
Hot, humid and tropical climates - can withstand very heavy usage - recommended for residential and commercial lawn sites.
 

TEMPERATURE TOLERANCE:
Tolerates heat exceptionally well up to 100(F, - subject to winter dormancy as it turns tan to brown at temperatures below 55(F, Zoysia japonica has fair cold hardiness, the best of the zoysias, but still ranks lower than cool-season turfgrasses.
 

DROUGHT RESISTANCE:
Moderate to good - remains green and resists short periods of drought - takes heat as well or better than any other grass. Can go into summer dormancy when irrigation is withheld; upon return of moisture supply, will green up again. Some varieties have better tolerance to heat and drought.
 

SHADE ADAPTATION:
Good - slow growing in partial shade, but much better than some warm-season grasses.
 

WEAR RESISTANCE:
Superior - exceptionally hardy, has the best wear resistance of any grass - tolerates heavy traffic - but slow to recover from severe thinning.
