Garden edges
Edges on garden beds have a ability to improve the visual side of the garden as far as ascetic is concerned also they can change viewing points of a garden and change where a individual will look first. For these reasons the garden edge is a fundamental factor in any garden whether it is a big, small any shape the edges are key deciding factor in .the finished ascetic value and the functionality of a area.
There is a few materials available to the individual that are commonly used for garden edges some of the common materials that I have seen over the years being used for a garden edge are concrete, timber, steel, block/brick wall, plastic. A edge for a garden should just exist on the ground surface but should also be in the ground as well this way the edge will deter grasses such as couch and zoysia because these two grasses and cultivars of them have rhizomes that grow under the surface of the ground. A edge for a garden should be not overly prominent but decisive
Concrete edges and concrete kerbing that is used to make a edge is a common choice especially for commercial area’s like parks for example. Concrete edges are not easy to dislodge they can have very decorative patterns on them and have a ability to attract the human eye if that is what you desire. Concrete or kerb edges can be made to a variety of shapes and do look very continuous.
Timber edges are really good at performing the cottage look and lasts for a long time when the timber is treated i.e.: treated pine. The timber edge can be easily moved around if you want to change the layout of your garden and a timber edge can also be put under the ground. The timber edge with some countersunk screws ticks all of the boxes as far as a great choice goes.
The metal edge or the link edge as the commercial common name is concerned is very much a more cosmopolitan look. It is very easy to install and very easy to change its location and it will last for a very long time in the ground because it is aluminium. The link edge is also flexible it is also possible to bolt the link edge on top of a masonry product like limestone block wall.
The masonry wall around a garden looks great it is very functional in terms of stopping anything to go thought it. Whether you choose limestone blocks or bricks the finished product will look great also if there is capping on the wall it will provide a great place to sin in the sunshine. With a wall made out of limestone or bricks you can also integrate a seat, letter box, smaller plant boxes for separate plants, steps. If you are a more creative type well there is a lot of places you can go with that.
A garden edge will mean less time separating the grass from the garden, it will look great and give you more time to relax. I would call a garden edge a great idea for any landscaping construction project and anyone that does not have one.
