Need your input: Planting Zoysia lawn this year...

Ok Southerners (NC/SC/GA/FL/TN): I'm considering planting Zoysia seed this year. Lots of open, bare ground, ready for some seed.

Do you have zoysia? Which variety? Best place to buy seed or plugs? How much did you pay?

Tips/tricks/comments? Looks like I'll need about 32-35lbs of seed to cover 15,850 sq. feet of lawn. Considering this source for the seed online.

Leave a comment to this post if you have any insights or tips. I'm listening, and thanks!
