Look at the lawns north of 466 where it is mostly St. Augustine during drought times or most any other times and you will see beautiful green lawns compared to south of 466 where they used Zoyzia.
St. Augustine is not a welcome addition to my zoysia lawn. Nor does my neighbor want it in his zoysia lawn. Nor does his neighbor on the other side. Nor does anyone else on the street whose lawn may be invaded by it. Glad you were happy wit it elsewhere, but I much prefer the zoysia since I can't have my Tifgreen here.
