We have both in our yard. The original was the Zoysia but everyone around us has St. Aug. The St. Aug. has taken over the yard, the only place it hasn't is where it can't get to the front so we have the Zoysia there. I strongly dislike St. Aug. To me it is like crab grass from up north only it takes a heck of a lot more water. I wish I could replace it but since it is all around me it would do no good. Good luck with your endeavor. I think maybe it died because of the extra harsh winter as I have seen a lot of newly sodded yards that died, I just don't think they could recover from the hard freezes we had.
