Obviously you've had better experience with St. Augustine. I respect that. And I've been very happy with St. Augustine in the past. I like it.

But my Zoysia looks better year around than you describe and I like it just fine. It's only your statements such as "one can't deny that any type of St. Augustine looks 100% better than the Zoysia..." that I take issue with. I for one certainly can deny that. (I don't know why the newer areas would be a problem unless newly installed lawns simply aren't getting proper maintenance.)

There are many, many beautiful Zoysia lawns in TV year 'round.
