El Toro Zoysia is a variety of Zoysia Japonica, great for growing in USDA hardiness zones 6-10.   We recommend 12" spacing when planting our plugs, but of course you can plant them as close or as far apart as you want.  The closer you plant plugs, the shorter the time that it takes for them to fill in.  

Why plugs? Sod is very expensive and extremely labor intensive, while seed is very tedious and can take up to two years to establish and mature.  Our plugs are simply put, probably the easiest plugs on the market to install because they're the same size and shape of the ProPlugger tool.  Do you want to plant square plugs in round holes?  We don't want it for you either.  Don't even bother trying to use those augers or square plugging tools!

Patience

I purchased 12 El Toro trays first in June and then two trays for fillers two weeks ago. My location is shady as high ever growing tree canopies block the sun. The developer left a thin layer of topsoil over Carolina clay and rock. The Bermuda was fine 10 years ago until the canopy grew higher. Then the Bermuda started thinning growing straight up instead of spreading.

Nothing worked. Aeration. Seeding. Fertilizer. Lime. Sod. Last year I dug out a section, hauled out clay and rock and put down six inches of topsoil. I put down “guaranteed” Shady Nook grass seed. Oh it germinated, but the Carolina heat burnt out the starting roots in no time.

This year I learned about grass plugs. I told my wife that I was going to try NC Plugs (after a couple of conversations with you) as a last resort before laying artificial turf. In 50 years of home ownership, NC was the only place I couldn’t grow grass.

El Toro has survived and is spreading slowly (patience). The combination of soil preparation, the more mature roots of the shade tolerant plugs and the realization that higher than normal water bills would ensue, El Toro has survived. It’s alive!

I am anxiously optimistic to see how El Toro survives the winter. If all goes as hoped, I’ll be ordering more El Toro in 2025 after I prepare another section of my yard.

Way to grow !

I have been very pleased with the El Toro plugs. I have made 3 orders in the past few months and have watched them already spread to double their original size.
