Abstract/Contents:Presents the 1996 NTEP zoysiagrass study to "evaluate the performance of vegetative and seeded varieties of zoysiagrass in Indiana." Results to date indicate that "the variety average visual quality rating after three years was 3.7. This provides a bench mark to compare the varieties on the market to the average performance of all zoysia varieties on the market to the average performance of all zoysia varieties in this test. The variety average visual quality rating has increased each year of rating. This is due to an increase in turf cover and density of all zoysia varieties but especially the vegetatively established varieties. Several vegetatively established varieties that did not perform well in 1997 and 1998 had high visual quality ratings in 1999. These included Emerald, Meyer, DALZ 9601 and Zeon. The improvement in visual quality ratings was due to increased cover and density. J-37 and Zen 400 were the best performing seeded varieties after three years."
