Few things make an anal retentive like me more happy than products that constrict, control and keep order. Lawns and yards can be so unruly, I try to exert control over them periodically . . . usually only to be outdone by dandelions, leaves and aphids. Recently I purchased some rolls of edging material made by Cobraco Manufacturing (I would link to them, but their site appears to be down). Unlike some competing products, it appears some clever engineering went into this product. The top is a black tube with a fin that gets buried in the ground. The fin has a “V” at the bottom to help keep it in place. I cut a nice curve into part of our lawn using a shovel and then added the edging. The result; a professional looking lawn and garden. A small victory over yard disorder!
Cobraco Edging is available for about $15 for 20 feet at an intriguing store in business since 1914; Stone Brothers.
