Empire Zoysia from Oasis sod farm in Georgetown, Ms.. Planted some last August , it wintered beautifully and is starting to green up already. I`m very pleased at this point.

That is very nice. I am looking at some right now. Wondering how it compares with 419 Tifway Bermuda.

Sorry I don`t have any idea but I read up on Empire before I bought it and so far it`s been everything it was billed to be.

Better have full sun for the Bermuda. If it's a little shady you better go with the zoysia. Zoysia will feel more cushy under your feet because it has silica in the leaves. This same reason is why it dulls your mower blades faster.

Btw +1 for Dan at Oasis. If your on Rankin Co. Side.

I have 419 bermuda. It is high maintenance. I don't know if zoysia if really high maintenance or not.
