Garden edging roll Gardena 538-20

The Gardena 538-20 Garden Edging Roll is a flexible green plastic border strip designed to create clean, durable edges between lawn and planting areas. With a height of 150 mm and a roll length of 9 000 mm, this edging roll helps to define garden beds, pathways and lawns while reducing turf encroachment into flower beds. The material is resilient against bending and can follow curved and straight lines to match various landscape layouts.

Advantages

The garden edging roll is made from weather-resistant plastic that resists rot and corrosion, providing a low-maintenance border solution. Its 150 mm height offers effective separation of turf and soil, while the 9-metre roll length allows coverage of extended perimeters without frequent joins. Flexibility makes installation around curves straightforward, and the green colour blends discreetly into planting areas.

How to use

Unroll the edging strip along the planned border line and position the top edge at the desired finished height. For a clean result, mark the layout with a string or hose before installation. Use a spade or edging tool to cut a narrow trench and insert the lower edge of the strip, ensuring the top remains visible at ground level. For long runs, butt ends together and secure according to site conditions; for curves, bend the strip gradually to follow the line. Backfill both sides of the edging to stabilize it and compact the soil to hold the strip in place.

Usage recommendations

For best durability, install the edging on firm, well-drained ground and avoid placing heavy loads directly on the top edge. In areas with very soft soil, consider adding short stakes or anchors to prevent movement. Periodically check the border after ground frost or heavy rain and recompact soil where necessary to maintain a neat edge.
