Return to article: How to Make a Neat Edge Between the Lawn and Flower Beds
on 11/15/2007 do you remove the black edging material after you make the drench between your flower garden and the lawn?
on 11/22/2005 Use a garden fork to perforate the lawn-side line of the trench, then connect the dots with your spade!
on 11/22/2005 I learned this after my parents seperated and I had to do the outside work.Depending on what kind of border your using (in my case it is the regular black stuff), you take a sharp square cut shovel and stick the blade in half way. Repeat this about an inch in front of the cut you made and take out the remaining dirt. Then, slide the trench into the crater you made and fill out the remaining space to steady the trench. It's a lot of work, especially in summer, but it pays off with a nice, clean-cut garden to look at every day.
