Zorro Zoysia
Zorro, the top-rated zoysia grass in NTEP trials, is a fine-bladed grass with a deep green color perfect for golf courses, commercial properties, and residential lawns. Its shade tolerance, durability, disease resistance, and beauty make it a popular choice over St. Augustine and centipede lawns.
Whether mowed with a reel mower at 1⁄4” or a rotary at 3”, Zorro thrives. Its superior shade tolerance allows it to grow in areas where other grasses struggle, and its fall color retention makes it a great choice from tropical regions to the transition zone.

Spring Care Guide
Pro Tips
- Fertility – Zorro requires very little Nitrogen to maintain a healthy, dense lawn.
- February – Soil test, liming based on soil results. Zorro prefers a pH between 6 and 6.5.
- Late March – Apply a 100% slow-release Nitrogen with equal parts Potassium (i.e. 15-0-15). This will feed your lawn incrementally throughout the Spring months and re-establish root mass.
- Weeds, Disease, and Insects – Preventative measure can help reduce the number of pesticides used on your lawn.
- Zorro produces a dense surface. Remove the dormant top layer so the new growth can push through!
Irrigation Maintenance
- Conduct an Irrigation Audit to ensure all heads are working properly and coverage is adequate.
- Increase times, not days. Your lawn’s demand for water is lower during this time but still needs adequate moisture as it transitions into the Spring/Summer.
- Mother Nature typically provides enough moisture in our area during April but ideally you’re looking for ½” of water per week in early Spring and ramping up to 1″ per week by the time we’re fully into
Summer.
