  8. Seeded Turf-Type Zoysia Under Appreciated & Under Utilized Daejon Soccer Stadium South Korea Summerdale Golf Course Georgia, USA

  9. U.S.A. – Zoysia Widely Adapted

  10. ZOYSIA – wide adaptation zone

  11. Features: •Winter hardy / cold tolerant •Heat & drought tolerant •Medium texture, very dense •Dark green color •Shade tolerant Uses: Golf fairways, tees and roughs, sod farms, parks, home lawns COMPADREseeded zoysia Zoysia japonica

  12. Benefits: Blends well with Turf-Type Tall Fescues for “year round green” Faster establishment than plugs or sprigs Less expensive than zoysia sprigs, plugs or sod COMPADREseeded zoysia Zoysia japonica
