Oahu homeowners already know that lawn care can be challenging in summer months, when temperatures are high and rainfall is minimal.
“For a lawn that maintains its beautiful deep green shade even through scorching summer months with minimal maintenance, Stadium Zoysia is a terrific option,” says Sean Fong, owner of Hawaiian Turfgrass in Mililani.
Available exclusively in the islands from Hawaiian Turfgrass, Stadium Zoysia is a finely textured, extremely durable grass with a rapid rate of lateral spread. Bred to thrive in warm climates, this variety boasts a number of qualities that make it perfect for Oahu:
• Heat and drought tolerance: Full sun is ideal for Stadium Zoysia. Thanks to its deep root system, Stadium Zoysia is able to efficiently access water stored deeper in the soil. This makes it ideal for areas with hotter summers and limited rainfall.
• Reduced need for water: Compared to other warm-season grasses, Stadium Zoysia requires less frequent watering. This means lower water bills as well as less time spent on maintaining a lawn, according to Fong.
• Wear and traffic resistance: Stadium Zoysia’s extensive network of stolons and rhizomes creates a strong, dense turf. According to Fong, this makes it tough and resilient to wear-and-tear from foot traffic, so it’s ideal for active families, and those with pets. Once it’s established, it’s difficult for weeds to penetrate the turf.
• Easy maintenance: Fong recommends mowing with a reel mower every 7-14 days. Stadium Zoysia can be cut at different mower heights, from a quarter of an inch to 1 inch — the longer the leaf blade, the darker it will appear, Fong says.
