Garden Edging Systems

Garden edging systems offer a variety of practical and decorative options for creating a clean border between lawns, flower beds and other landscaping sections. They also help prevent weeds and grass roots from traveling under the edge of your garden bed and into your soil or mulch.

What is the difference between edging and hedging?

For a professional-looking edge that is long-lasting and sturdier than bender board, consider metal landscape edging. Available in steel or aluminum, both are durable and rust-resistant. Link : https://www.formboss.com.au/garden-edging-systems/

Stainless steel is the most common metal garden edging, but aluminum can be more durable. You can purchase this type of edging at many home improvement and garden centers, but it’s best to buy it from your landscaping supplier or online.

Plastic Edging:

For an inexpensive alternative to metal edging, plastic is a popular choice for creating a defined boundary between lawn and garden. It’s easy to install and doesn’t require digging or spikes.

Keep in mind that this plastic material can be prone to curling up or getting curled up over time, so it’s a good idea to unroll it the day before you plan to use it. Some types of rolled plastic edging are thicker than others, so make sure you purchase the right size for your landscape bed.

Next, dig a small trench about 4 or 5 inches deep, just wide enough to fit your edging down into. Once you have the edging in place, shovel excess soil into the trench to pack it down. Then, stake it to ensure it remains firmly in place.
