  • Plastic Strip Lawn Edging

    From the poundshop.
    Two words: "just don't".
    I put this stuff on my lot last summer, and now it is disintegrating into about a million gazillion pieces. Total carp.
    I'm gradually replacing it with wine bottle edging, and hoping it will trap solar energy and warm up my beds quicker. Hic

        well we did same thing first,
        but it was my daughter that found online the heavy duty lawn edging, that seems to work ever so well, so lately we purchased some more lawn edging and raised beds that made from same material.
        thumb up for that one! I think it called there black heavy duty enviro edging.

          That green crinkled stuff IS absolutely rubbish. I didn't even get a season out of it. And to rub salt into the wounds, you then have to pick all the little bits of broken plastic up!!!

          Either reclaimed timber, stone or bottles are the way to go. Much more EF!

            Totally agree with you about the plastic edging. but wine bottles - very expensive alternative.
