| Description |
Emerald
Zoysia is a fine leafed, dense growing and dark green
turfgrass. The root system is very drought tolerant as
the stolons grow underground, which also makes it more
cold tolerant. Once established with a dense turf, it
is highly weed tolerant and wear resistant to foot traffic. |
