Abstract
This study was carried out to develope new zoysiagrass cultivar Semil' (Registration no. 1749). Artificial crossing between the collected lines of typical Z. matrella, NM1 (collected in South Korea) and the different ecotype of Z. matrella, ASm (collected in South Korea) was made to develop a F1 hybrid plant (NM1 ${\times}$ ASm). Among the 30 progenies, (NM1 ${\times}$ ASm)-1 (Semil) showed superior performance in density rating. 'Semil' showed genetically light green color, with narrow leaf width ($2.7{\pm}0.12mm$), and low plant height ($10.3{\pm}3.7cm$), Length to lowest leaf blade of this cultivar was $1.8{\pm}0.15cm$, which may allow low mowing height upto 12 mm.
