thanks!All of my grass is dying from the cold! Do you have any advice on how to keep it lush and green?
It may be Zoysia grass, or it could be any of the ';warm'; season grasses like Bermuda, Centipede, St. Augustine, or Kikuyu. Since you are in Texas, I would assume that you do in fact have a warm season grass. This is about all that will grow in Texas.





Warm-Season grasses are of tropical origin and thrive during the scorching summer heat such as you experience. They are tough and form a dense lawn cover that thickens as they age. However, they are not green during the cold spells of winter, and their leaves turn brown in late fall and don't green up again until warm weather returns in the spring. In general they are green a little over half the year. Warm season grasses are best grown in the lower and middle South regions which includes the Coastal areas from Virginia south to Georgia and west through Alabama into Texas. So, have no fear. Your warm season grass will green up when warmer temps return in the spring, (maybe sooner in Texas) ya never know... Hope this answers your question. Good Luck!

it doesn't matter, when it comes to wintertime the grass is going to grow dormant and it will grow back in the spring.
It could be Zoysia Grass which turns yellow when the temperature hits the low 40's to around freezing. It will green up when the weather warms up. Go on line and look at the photos of the different Zoysia grasses to see if that is what you have.
I do not think it is the cold. Have you been watering it enough?
Your grass is dormite.





You can overseed with a rye blend to have a green lawn.
