Zoysia Grass
There is only one variety of zoysia you can grow from seed.
Everything else is sod or plugs.
You can keep on plugging your zoysia to spread it around.

Hi brianb,
I live in the burbs of Atlanta and have a zoysia lawn. It performs well
in
full sun, the shaded thin out over time (it was a sod job done
approximately
7 years ago). I cut my lawn with a regular mower, mulching in the spring
and bagging as the temperatures increase (the growth is much faster in the
summer months). My lawn does go dormant in the early months of winter and
begins to green up in late March. It is very lush and I keep it mowed at
1
to 1 1/2 inches throughout the growing season, unless drought conditions
prevail; which has not been the case in this rainy spring season here in
Georgia north of Macon.
HTH,
Sean

In Hampton VA, zoysia grows and stays green until December. It greens
up
again in early May.
The one we have is coarser and hardier than Emerald and is most likely
Meyer. Your best grass bet for the least maintenance required.
Really? Interesting. I'm in central Georgia, so I expect it would be
green most of the year.
How does Zoysia do in shade? Do you cut with a regular or reel mower?
I'm thinking of seeding with Zoysia. I have to rototill my yard
though, first.
