Full details
This Primeur Rubber Edging is designed for gardeners seeking a flexible, durable, and eco-friendly alternative to traditional border materials. Its key benefit is the ease of installation and ability to conform to garden curves, offering a long-lasting solution with minimal maintenance. A potential consideration is its lighter weight compared to concrete, which may affect stability in extremely high-wind areas without proper installation. The edging is made from recycled tires, providing a sustainable option that won't fade, rot, or crack, and it comes with all necessary installation spikes.

Troubleshooting
Edging does not hold its shape on a curve.
Ensure spikes are driven firmly into the ground and are positioned close enough together to support the curve. For tighter curves, consider using thinner border variants if available.
Spikes are difficult to hammer into hard ground.
Pre-dig a shallow trench along the border line or moisten the ground to make installation easier. Alternatively, use a rubber mallet for a more controlled impact.
Edging appears uneven after installation.
Check that the ground is level along the border. Adjust the depth of the spikes to ensure the top edge of the edging is consistently aligned.
