    Great advice.. I like your channel. Maybe you can suggest type of edging. We have a flood irritated citrus property in Mesa Arizona. The area I would like to start with is on a 12" inch burm. I would like to back fill from the grass level for plant bed. I like the metal. Do they manufacture 12" inch tall edging? Any suggestions? I browsed your garden Video's. Quite delightful. 😊

    Thank you I have been looking into this. Does this eliminate the need for a string trimmer & is the lawn mower wheel against the edge or riding on the edge, and would you mow it the same with the plastic edging?

    • @Gardenninja
      @Gardenninja  Рік тому +1

      Hi Ethan. Pretty much yes it does. You can mow much closer and because the grass doesn’t ‘creep’ into the border it’s much easier to keep a clean edge. 🥷🌿🤘

    The edging comes in various depths, the ones I'm looking at are 65mm, 100mm and 150mm, what would you recommend? Thank you!

    • @Gardenninja
      @Gardenninja  10 місяців тому

      I’d go for 100 for a nice snug fit. For tree rings 65mm is fine but edging go for 100. Also means if you know it it won’t pop out!! 🤣🌿👌
