Default Zoyzia grass

Anyone used it? I have been watching the local sod guy waiting for a
left over part of a pallet of Bermuda and I saw he had something new
in the "part pallet" pile left over from a job. It turned out to be
Zoysia for $1.35 a piece. I only needed 30 so I gave it a shot (I
actually bought 40 in case I was wrong and gave 10 to my neighbor)
It is green on top and that is all I care about now. I had that patch
next to the pool prepped for something when we got Deuce. (everything
dead, 20 bags of fresh top soil and a dash of lawn starter fertilizer
mixed in).Deuce thought it was a sand box and he was getting out of
the pool, rolling in the dirt and getting back in the pool.
What do I have?


My yard is Zoysia. It's good grass for this area, but not traffic tolerant.. My Lab has worn paths in it. Very thick, and needs to be dethatched every two years or so to be healthy. It is fairly shade tolerant. It will choke out other grasses, and does fill in quickly.
