Default Sod

I just replaced some sod in front yard with zoysia because that’s what the rest of it is. Have st. Augustine in most rest of yard. Had lots of dead spots plus quantum not replacing what they dug up. Got it from Cottoms A-1 sod in Weirsdale. $1500 installed. The owner said Zoysia is a dying bread around Florida. Needs more water and more insect prone. He has to go to the panhandle to get zoysia while st. Augustine around Orlando. He said in a couple years st. Augustine will be king.
