Suppresses weeds while allowing air, water and nutrients through
Made of durable, recycled-tire rubber with the look of bark mulch
Makes gentle curves or straight borders
We also offer 12" Edge Border
What Our Customers Say

Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
I use this to edge my flower beds (islands in lawn). I've tried pound-in edging, ditching, and mulch, but the grass always invades, and my husband doesn't know where he can mow, so I end up doing lots of hand trimming. Now, he can set the mower wheel on the edge-border, and get all the grass in one pass!
Pros

Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:

- Less work edging
Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
I used it along the border of fence and neighbors driveway to control the weeds.
I also used between the fence and lawn area so that we didn't have weed too close to our vinyl fence.
The only problem I had was cutting it to fit around the fence posts. It is so strong that it's really hard to cut. I also was about 2 ft short in one area and wish I could buy this product in shorter lengths.
Pros
- Durable
- High Quality
Cons
Best Uses
- Defining borders
Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
We have a serpentine garden in our yard and this edging allows us to follow the contour of the garden easily. I mow with one wheel on the edging, giving a clean cut eliminating the need to trim.
Pros
- Durable
Cons
- Difficult to lay flat
Best Uses
- Border for raised beds
Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
The backing was very difficult to remove. The product will not lay flat even a year later. It does look neat and weeds are blocked.
Pros
- Durable
Cons
Best Uses
Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
We used this edging around a very large flower bed so we could mow right up to the mulch-line! It is terrific. Our riding mower doesn't even budge this edging so we don't have to weed-eat around it. We love this edging.
Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
Didn't perform like I expected. Hard to install around curves, doesn't lay flat, ends curl up, hardy weeds grow through.

Cons
- Roll creates curls
Best Uses

Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
Very sturdy and easy to place. Center of roll was too curled and hard to keep down. Makes great edging for areas like under a chain link fence.

Comments about 5-1/2" Recycled Rubber Edge Border:
Recycelded tire mulch really works as a straight mulch that a lawn mower goes right over-no weed wacd=ker necessary! However, I am not sure how to cut the product to go around curves as claimed in the catalogue.
