Do I need garden edging?

Garden edging is not essential, but it offers numerous benefits, including keeping soil, mulch, and gravel in place, preventing grass from spreading into garden beds, and improving the overall aesthetics of your garden. It also makes maintenance easier by defining clear lines for mowing and trimming.

How to edge a garden?

To edge a garden, start by marking out the shape of your garden bed with a garden hose or string line. Use a spade to cut along the marked line, removing grass and creating a trench about 5-10 cm deep. The trench can then be filled with your choice of edging material to define the garden bed neatly.

How to lay a brick garden edge?

Lay a brick garden edge by first preparing a shallow trench slightly wider than the bricks. Fill the trench with a layer of sand for a stable base, and then place the bricks tightly together, ensuring they are level. For added stability, you can use mortar to set the bricks, especially in high-traffic areas.

How to lay sleepers for garden edging?

To use sleepers for garden edging, lay them out along the desired border of your garden bed. Dig a trench where the sleepers will sit, ensuring it is deep enough so that a third of the sleeper's height is buried for stability. Backfill the trench to secure the sleepers in place, checking for level as you go.

How to install metal garden edging?

Install metal garden edging by first clearing the area and digging a trench where the edging will go. The trench should be deep enough to accommodate about half the height of the edging. Place the metal edging into the trench and secure it with stakes or pegs at regular intervals. Backfill the trench, packing the soil tightly against the edging.

What size timber for garden edging?

The size of timber for garden edging typically ranges from 100mm to 150mm in height and 25mm to 50mm in thickness. The choice depends on the desired aesthetic and the level of separation you need between different areas of your garden.

How deep does garden edging need to be?

The depth of garden edging depends on the type of edging material and the purpose of the edging. Generally, a depth of 5-15 cm is sufficient to create a defined border and prevent grass roots from crossing under the barrier. For more substantial barriers, such as preventing rhizome grass intrusion, deeper edging might be necessary.

How to dig a trench for garden edging?

To dig a trench for garden edging, use a flat spade to cut a straight line along the edge of your garden bed. Remove the top layer of grass and dig down to the required depth, typically between 5-15 cm, depending on your edging material. Keep the trench width uniform and the sides as vertical as possible for a neat finish.
