Beautiful, emerald colored Zoysia grass is just one benefit of owning a home in Southwest Florida. This thick, carpet-like grass is considered the most desirable because of its rich green color and plush appearance. As beautiful as this grass may be, it does require routine maintenance to ensure that it remains healthy and vibrant.
One of the most common problems associated with Zoysia grass is the dreaded “brown spot”, which is in fact a disease outbreak. Unfortunately, Zoysia grass is the first species to go off-color in the fall and the last to green-up in the spring.
If a brown patch occurs, the damage will be visible into the next summer. Because of the cyclical nature of Zoysia grass, it is important to ward off any potential disease with preventative treatment. Proper fertilization is vital for maintaining a healthy lawn. The process of fertilization influences the health and quality of the lawn and makes it less vulnerable to several stresses including disease, weeds and insects.
We have created state of the art, custom nourishment programs to maintain the health of your Zoysia grass and nourish diseased grass back to optimum health. Current recommendations state that Zoysia grass should receive 3-6 applications per year in most situations. We recommend that treatments occur in early spring and late fall.
Other factors may influence the health of your Zoysia grass including pests like hunting billbugs, mole crickets and sod webworms. Personalized Pest Control offers lawn/turf pest control solutions designed to leave your landscape healthy and pest-free.
Excessive shade, compact soil, improper watering (over or under-watering), traffic and unstable pH levels can also result in an unhealthy lawn.
