In conjunction with the 70th Annual Kansas Turfgrass Conference, the K-State Turf and Landscape Blog will be highlighting our top-tier, Albatross sponsors over the next several weeks. Our Albatross sponsors generously contributed $750 or more in support of our conference this year. This additional funding helps to support K-State Turfgrass research and education.
Our first sponsor highlight goes out to “Innovation™ Zoysia.” Innovation™ Zoysia is a grass that was developed over the course of 15 years by two turfgrass breeding universities, Kansas State and Texas A&M. This new turfgrass is suitable for both lawns and golf courses
Innovation has a high level of turf quality and was bred to be a superior replacement for the long-standing turfgrass, Meyer Zoysia. In fact, Innovation is the first hybrid zoysiagrass that has a finer texture and higher density than Meyer, but with a tolerance to cold weather that is equivalent.
Here is a chart that compares Innovation™ Zoysia to Meyer Zoysia (see below):
