Zoysia is a particularly hardy grass that grows well in a wide range of conditions and requires far less watering and mowing than most grasses.
Zoysia’s vigorous root system is so deep and extensive the grass rarely, if ever, needs watering — zoysia can really cut your water bills.
The lateral growth of zoysia means it grows tall very slowly — most people mow zoysia once for every three times they need to mow other grasses!
Amazoy plugs will thrive in the heat and sunshine, but will not be damaged by snow or cold weather conditions. Amazoy can withstand temperatures of 120° to -30°Fahrenheit.
It’s beautiful and tough. The way it naturally grows outward along the ground in all directions, zoysia grass acts like a network of plants that can withstand heavy use, and will fill in if damaged.

Zoysia is a particularly hardy grass that grows well in a wide range of conditions and requires far less watering and mowing than most grasses. At the same time, this “tough” grass creates a thick, soft carpet that feels great in bare feet. Zoysia is ideal because it actually grows differently. It sends out runners or “stolons,” expanding sideways more than it grows tall.
This is why it is so dense and effective at choking out most summer weeds and replacing existing grass. With our superior blend of zoysia, Amazoy®, you can plant a network of plugs in a new or existing lawn and it will grow into a lush, even, weed-free lawn within several growing seasons.
The key reasons zoysia is so attractive for homeowners:
Cuts water bills
Zoysia’s vigorous root system is so deep and extensive the grass rarely, if ever, needs watering – zoysia can really cut your water bills.
Reduces mowing by two-thirds
The lateral growth of zoysia means it grows tall very slowly – most people mow zoysia once for every three times they need to mow other grasses!
Zoysia thrives in heat and cold
“The hotter it gets, the better it grows.” Zoysia loves blistering heat and yet it won’t winter kill either – it can survive to 30° below zero. It’s perfect for extreme conditions as well as mild climates.
Chokes out crabgrass and weeds all summer long
Your established zoysia lawn grows so thick with deep roots that crabgrass and other weed seeds cannot germinate.
No more chemicals
Since zoysia naturally resists insects and diseases, you avoid the cost, time and risk of exposing your family and pets to weedkillers and pesticides.
Never needs replacement – even heals itself
It’s beautiful and tough. The way it naturally grows outward along the ground in all directions, zoysia grass acts like a network of plants that can withstand heavy use, and will fill in if damaged.
Zoysia is THE answer for slopes, play areas and bare spots
You can’t beat zoysia for hard to cover spots, worn areas or to end erosion on slopes. It even levels out ground irregularities.
You don’t pamper zoysia – You enjoy it!
Zoysia Farm Nurseries grows and distributes only the original, superior Meyer Z-52 strain of zoysia, under the name “Amazoy®.” In recent decades, some universities and private companies have tinkered with new zoysia strains, but all research to date indicates that improving some properties of the grass comes at the expense of others.
Zoysia was brought to the United States by Frank Meyer, a famous USDA plant explorer who discovered zoysia along Korea’s Yalu River in 1906. Meyer introduced countless Asian plants to the US, including most of the variations of soybean we grow today, before disappearing without a trace while collecting specimens in China. When the Department of Agriculture began to grow and refine zoysia in 1930, they named the strains in Meyer’s honor. And by 1951, the 52nd strain or “Meyer Z-52” was jointly released in cooperation with the U.S. Golf Association for commercial development.
Herbert Friedberg, founder of Zoysia Farm Nurseries was the first entrepreneur to recognize zoysia’s potential to improve America’s lawns. Today, Zoysia Farm Nurseries is the oldest, continuously operating company to sell zoysia grass plugs by mail. The company not only pioneered the sale of zoysia, but also perfected the mail order distribution of “live plants” to homeowners throughout the country.
If you answer yes to one or more of these questions, and the area to be planted receives a minimum of 2-3 hours of direct sunlight a day, Amazoy zoysia is right for you!
Amazoy zoysia plugs provide a growing, pre-rooted plant.
Our starter plants or plugs maintain consistent genetic attributes from the original Meyer Zoysia plants released by the Department of Agriculture. This ensures a uniform appearance and growth habit.
Grass seed, including Zoysia seed, is fragile and can be difficult to establish. Seeding and initial care must be performed during the warmest times of the year, when soil moisture levels are hard to control.
Extreme care must be used to keep the seed and seedlings from drying out and dying. This can be difficult in hot, sunny, dry, and windy conditions. Keeping the seeds moist is critical to Zoysia seed success in the early stages.
Amazoy Zoysia grass plugs with their established roots only need light daily watering for 10-15 minutes for the first three weeks and because they already have roots are stronger and more successful.
Plugs can be planted into an existing lawn while seed needs to be planted in a cleared bed area which has whatever grass or weeds were there removed, and the soil tilled, in preparation for the seed. Seeds are ideal for bigger projects (over 12,000 square feet) and for ones where a new lawn is needed more quickly than the 1-3 years plugs typically take. Here’s a more complete comparison of ways to establish a beautiful Amazoy Zoysia lawn.
