Why anyone concerned with -30 temps would want Zoysia is beyond me. A
neighbor here at the NJ shore has it. Their lawn turns brown in Oct
and looks like hell all fall, winter and half of spring. It stays
that way till late May. My tall fescue/blue grass looks spectacular
in the fall and stays a deep green usually into January. It greens up
again in early April.

Plus it's aggressive and will spread everywhere, including beds,
driveways, etc.

Zoysia is great! Put in the plugs and your will have a thick green yard in
2-3 growing seasons. You should only have to water the first year. its good
to
-30 degrees. go for it.

Does anyone have any information or knowledge of the Zoysia Lawn "plugs"
that are advertised in the Family Handyman magazines??

I'm building a new house this year and I was thinking of planting that
type
of lawn.

Thanks for any input.
