El Toro Zoysia, a cultivar of a japonica type
zoysiagrass, was developed by Dr. Victor B. Younger at UC Riverside and is
a patented variety available only through authorized and licensed growers.
This popular new patented
variety offers the best of warm season and cool season grasses. El
Toro presents a medium coarse texture without seed heads and forms a
carpetlike turf similar to bluegrasses and fescues. It can withstand heavy
foot traffic and thrives in hot temperatures. This remarkable grass is
resistant to most diseases, tolerant of most soil types, uses less water
and require fewer mowings than other grasses. El Toro can be maintained at
a mowing height of 1 - 2 inches and can be mowed with either a rotary or
reel type mower. During winter dormancy, mowing and fertilizing are not
necessary. For winter color El Toro can be over seeded with ryegrass or
fescue. El Toro can be planted as sod or stolons.
