Edging - Dimex Edge Pro®

The most common type of edging is poly. Poly is a black, hard polymer plastic. Miller Nursery only uses a commercial grade. It is significantly stronger than edging found at a home improvement store. Commercial grade is key for the longevity of the edging. Thicker grades of plastic are capable of withstanding more impacts from a lawnmower or line trimmer.

Poly edging is very easy to maintain and is cost efficient. Installation is not difficult, but there are certain techniques that must be followed for the edging to last over time. Poor installation can cause the edging to heave, crack, or break during the freeze/thaw process. Poly will expand and contract as the temperature changes. A commercial grade of poly edging, installed properly should last at least 10 years.

Miller Nursery only uses commercial grade Dimex Edge Pro® for all of our poly edging installations.
