Feeling a Bit Edgy?

By Nina A. Koziol

There’s nothing like a good clean edge. That line between the field and the end zone. Where your plantings score. A nice trench along the turf — tidy! Then there are hardscape options to take it up a notch.

A crisp, sophisticated edge

Metal edge and river stone that links with the home’s siding color Mower’s edge for that tight, tidy look

No fuss, no muss.
