The Rhizoctonia solani fungus attacks zoysia grass and causes a disorder called large brown patch. Small, rounded spots of discolored, water-soaked grass appear on zoysia lawns.These damaged areas often have a yellowish ring of dying grass around their perimeters.oysia is a species of warm-weather grass native to Southeast Asia. Named after Karl von Zois, an 18th-century botanist from Austria, zoysia became popular with United States homeowners in the 1940s and 1950s, particularly in the southern United States, because these grasses perform well in warm climates.
Slow Growth. Although it is dense once established, zoysia grass is known for its slow growth -- you do not need to mow it as often as other grasses. For this reason, you should transplant during the active spring and summer growing season. The plugs need time to fill in to prevent wind and water erosion.
