    Q
    What form of Zoysia is the Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed?
    I currently have Empire Aoysia and live in Central Florida, will it tolerate this heat?
    A

     Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed is Zenith variety simliar to Meyer and is to be used in warm weather zones.  The best way to determine if this turf will grow in your area would be to contact either your local Master Gardner or Department of Agriculture to get feedback from what others in your area have had success with in your area.  Another option is to contact the manufacturer directly as there would better know what the seed can tolerate.  Patten Seed Company can be reached at 800-634-1672.

    Q
    Can I hydroseed with Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed?
    I just ordered 36 pounds of this seed for a 12,000 sq. ft. reno at my house. I have access to a hydroseeder, it seems that this would be better than attempting a light covering with soil or peat moss. Am I right in thinking this would be a good idea?
    A

    Yes, you can hydroseed using Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed.

    Q
    When seeding with Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed, is a 10-10-10 fertilizer good to use?
    A

    Whatever fertilizer you choose for your Zenith Zoysia lawn would be determined by its needs/health and what level of nutrients are present in the soil, as well as the pH of the soil. If the lawn is not majorly lacking in any particular nutrients, a general 10-10-10 fertilizer would be fine to apply as a general feed.

    Q
    At what temperature will the Zenith varieties of Zoysia go dormant?
    My coldest winter temp is about 42 degrees. I chose Zenith Zoysia for its slow growth and ability to stay green. Last year in I planted seed early summer and used dithiopyr in October and it went dormant right after and didn't green up until May. Winter is the "outside" season and don't want a brown lawn.
    A

    Zoysia will go dormant at the first frost. If you apply a pre-emergent such dithiopyr to a newly seeded area, it could inhibit the grass seed growth.   The best way to determine what grass seed would grow and establish well in your area would be to speak to someone at your Local Cooperative Extentions Office for what will thrive in your weather and environments conditions.

    Q
    What type of soil is required for Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed? Will it grow in southern Florida?
    A

    Zenith Zoysia Grass Seed can potentially grow in Zones 5b to 11a on the 2012 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map or Zones 1-4 on the Turfgrass Hardiness Map. This grass grows best with neutral to alkaline soil with a pH range of 6 to 7. You will need good soil drainage for zoysia to stay healthy, though, and a good amount of sunlight.  You can view the full details on the label here. We also recommend reaching out to your local Cooperative Extension Office for the best advice on selecting the right turfgrass for your area.
