Jamur in Winter

hodad – posted 01 December 2011 12:23

November 31st here in Northwast Atlanta (Roswell area) and my Jamur is still pretty green. Not growing much and the seed heads stopped forming some time ago, but is retaining the green color longer than I expected.

My neighbors yard which was sodded at the same time (May) looks about the same. Maybe a little less green, but he has his cut a shorter than I do.

We just had our first noticeable frost this morning so this might change as our temps get a little colder.

Other types of Jamur in the neighborhood are defintely dormant and brown.

Is this something that is specific to Jamur? Retaining color longer than most types of Zoysia.

Just wondering.

Is it thicker than the neighbors zoysia? Usually the thicker areas of my lawn stay green much longer i guess because the cold can’t hit the roots as easy.

It seems a little thicker, but I just assumed that was because I keep it a little longer length
