What kind of grass should I plant?

Zoysia

Zoysia is a warm season grass with a fine texture and very thin blades with pointed tips. It spreads by using over-ground runners and seed. Its deep, rich green color and low growth habit make it a prized grass among homeowners in the deep south. It is also very shade tolerant. It tolerates both high maintenance and low maintenance options, and its traffic tolerance is excellent. However, Zoysia spreads slowly and must be established from sod. Seeding or plugging takes years to develop satisfactory turf.
