Edging
There are four types of edging used by Miller Nursery: natural, poly, prefabricated concrete, and limestone.

The basic function of edging is to create a boundary between grass and a planting area. A boundary is necessary to prevent grass from spreading into a planting area and to keep mulch out of the grass. Before deciding on a type of edging, it is important to consider longevity, cost, aesthetics, and installation.

Miller Nursery's landscape designer, Craig Westfield, says that poly and Classic Edge are by far the most popular choices for his customers. This is based on their durability, ease of construction, and low cost. Edging is a necessary part of any landscape, but done properly, it can add to the entire appeal of the garden.
