Amazoy Meyer Zoysia grows in a variety of soil conditions. Although it thrives in some better than others, it will do great in almost all soil types. Zoysia thrives whenever the pH of your soil is neutral (between 6 and 7), and it can prosper in all of these soil types:

• Clay Soil- Amazoy Zoysia has strong roots which are able to penetrate dense, clay soil and create air passages for good root development. The Zoysia we harvest here in Maryland is actually grown in red clay soil.
• Rock-Like Soil- Plugs will grow in rock-like soils and granite soils that seeds will not. Just be sure to mix a little top soil in the hole when planting the plugs.
• Salty Soil- Zoysia is very salt tolerant, so it is recommended for coastlines where salty, sandy soils are often found. It even does well near roads and driveways that are salted to melt winter ice and snow.Image may be NSFW.

• Sandy Soil- Amazoy Zoysia plugs grow especially well in sandy soil because there is much airspace that allows Zoysia’s roots to penetrate, providing quicker root development. We also harvest some of our grass from our farm in Delaware, which comes with sandier soil. Zoysia’s drought tolerance makes it ideal for sandy soils as well.

Zoysia will grow well in a variety of soil conditions; however soil type is not the only consideration. If you are planting near trees or have recently had trees removed, you should certainly check the pH of your soil. Feel free to check out our pH meter to assist you with this, which can be found at http://www1.zoysiafarms.com/prodspec.jsp?id=40BE&cat=3. As long as you have the acceptable pH and you are sure that your area gets 2-3 hours of direct sunlight per day, the Zoysia should be successful in your lawn.
