Water Manila Grass deeply when the soil begins to dry out, especially during prolonged dry spells. It is relatively drought-tolerant once established but thrives with consistent moisture.

Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.

Pruning for Manila Grass primarily involves mowing. Maintain a mowing height of 2-5 cm. Mow regularly during the growing season to encourage dense growth.

Remove any brown or dead patches to improve aesthetics and plant health.

Manila Grass is best propagated by division of established clumps or by sod. Stolons and rhizomes spread naturally to form new patches. For quicker establishment, sodding is an effective method, especially for lawns.

Repotting is not applicable to Zoysia matrella when grown as a lawn. If grown in containers, divide overgrown clumps in spring or early summer when active growth resumes. Use fresh potting mix for replanting.
