JP, not sure how long you're living there but for the rest of us Zoysia grass is about as invasive as it gets. It will quickly overrun any bare areas even those that are heavily mulched. Without edging you don't stand a chance. Zoysia spreads via "runners" both above and below ground and will travel even under 4" of stone.
