Edging in the Garden

Edging

A neat garden looks refined and shows off your plants.
Just simply trimming your Lawn edges will make a big visual difference.

Edging Supplies

  • Rolls of wood logs like those shown above can be attractive.
  • Old fashioned terracotta scalloped or roped edging is one of my favourites. Poor quality edging wont pay as I have found it wont with stand frost and looks worse than nothing.
  • Kerbing or precast concrete can provide a hard straight edge for an economic price
  • Wooden edges should be made from tannalised or pressure treated wood to avoid quick rotting
  • Random stone or bricks can make a mini wall or a perfectly natural looking edge.
  • I have not tried compressed peat blocks but they are used in some raised beds as edges
  • See DIY project ‘Edging’
