It has been about 4 months since I planted my new Japanese grass garden, the grass today still has uneven color and height, can I know what else I need to do to end up with even color and height?

The different is due to the different exposure to sun. Very hard to get even colour.
For even height you need to trim it frequently.

If you walk a lot on the grass and with sufficient sunlight, it will grow slow in term of height.

You better trim the grass. Do not let it grow too tall. Too tall when trim all become brown and die. No kidding.

Ya, already trim today.
As you say, can see manybrown patch after trim.

Thanks, will start trimming...

For uneven ground, what can I do to even out? when planting the grass, the planter put 2x1 patches on top of sand, and there are slim border lines that are not covered properly, should i add more sand or add topsoil to even out those areas? or just let grass slowly cover them?
*
Yes, top soil will even out your lawn.

The gap between each piece of grass is too wide, they should be slightly over lap to each other.

Unless they direct order from sand mine. Or else will take them some time to fill up the lorry from their back yard.

All zoysia are not very shade resistant. Pearl grass is better in term of plating in shaded area, but they will grow thin in heavy shade as well. My lawn (Japanese grass) that receives 8hrs of full sunlight is short and thick, areas with 4hrs are longer and sparse..

This is the problem i try to resolve now. but mine is Philippine grass.
Any sifu can suggest for solutions.

Hi, does anyone know of a landscaper who would be willing to work on a small project (terraced house, small plot of land) that would be environmentally friendly by using only local plants and a water-saving automated drip watering system. Also looking for a vertical garden on one wall.
Thanks in advance!

Where is your location? I might be able to introduce you one.
