This whole subject is why I'd asked about Zoysia before. My thought was that the plugs could be planted right at the water line, and eliminate the need for watering to get them started. Certain strains of Zoysia are said to be more drought resistant, tolerant to heat, and take less fertilizer. I believe they're starting to even use it for football fields. But, this just be salesmen talking.
But, the deal breaker for me was weed control. I don't believe it can be sprayed with MSMA, or 2 4-D, so I'm not sure it could battle the TX weeds for control, and I'm not wanting to spray that close to the water.
That's why I was curious if anybody had tried it.
