As far as I know, Zoysia is the only grass that stays green year round down here. Bermuda, St Augustines, Bahia and all the rest go dormant in the winter time. Zoysia also needs much less water and less fertilizer. It grows slower vertically so it does not need to be cut as often.
Like someone else said, up north we call St Augustines, crabgrass.
