Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the Diamond, Cavalier, Palisades, and Crowne varieties of zoysia grass. Suggests that the zoysia grasses are "a viable alternative to St. Augustine [because] they have good shade tolerance, lower water demands and are cold hardy." Predicts that "more than 2,000 acres of zoysia grasses will be under cultivation in Texas by the end of [2000]." |
