Conditions Trial conducted in open beds, plants propagated from cuttings, planted into 200mm pots filled with soilless potting mix, nutrition maintained with slow release and liquid fertilisers, irrigation by overhead watering, pest and disease treatments not required. Plants trimmed 10 weeks before assessment. Trial Design Thirty pots of each variety arranged in a completely randomised design. Measurements From ten plants at random. RHS Chart - edition 2001. Origin and Breeding Open pollination followed by seedling selection: seed parent Zoysia macrantha. 2000-2005: open pollination of Zoysia macrantha selections originally collected from NSW coastal areas including Central Coast and Wollongong. Each year, selections were made based on speed of growth and overall turf habit (density, ground coverage) and these were then the parents for the following year s selections. Slower varieties were discarded. The result was greatly improved growth rates more suited to lawn use. 2006-2007: the final selection was made from the parent selection T11. This selection was considered to have a good turf habit, a broader leaf width, fast growth rate and good salt tolerance. The seed parent is characterised by narrow leaf width, medium growth vigour and medium salt tolerance. Selection took place in Clarendon, NSW in 2006. Selection criteria: broader leaf width, strong growth vigour, dense growth habit and strong salt tolerance. Propagation: vegetative, division is found to be uniform and stable.
