Old bricks. If you lay them at the same depth at the lawn, you can run one mower wheel on the bricks so that you cut right up to the edge of the grass. Plants can tumble onto the brick edging without creating dead patches in the grass. Put the bricks end on to the flower bed to make the edging the full length of the brick.
Reply:Log roll edge is a cheap edging solution about 7 euro for 6ft by 2ft long lasting and pressure treated.

I use this to keep a neat edge between the lawn and beds and after planting I fill the beds with bark. If you let the grass grow over it very slightly it is not visible, and keeps a sharp edge without ever having to re-shape it. If you don't use a hover mower, you will probably have to use edging scissors to keep it neat.





I used to use fabric too, but I don't think it's worth it. It makes the soil all flat and stale (I even got big fungus growing from underneath it), it also looks bad when it shows through. I think it's better just to put bark straight onto the soil, if you use enough bark this suppresses most weeds except the occasional few.
Reply:I wouldn't bother, just make the edges neat with a spade or a half moon cutter and keep the grass clipped neatly with edging shears, as if you put border edging in, you can't mow right up to the edge, so you will have to strim to cut the remaining grass, and by strimming you tend to ruin the edging strips and use up lots of strimmer line.
