One task all owners of running grasses, in particular, face is stopping the grass from heading into garden beds and over paths and driveways.

There are a number of tools that edge lawns well and one, most gardener’s love that takes out the strain is a whipper snipper.

Couple of things to remember to get the best edging
– Wear eye and ear protection
– Edge before you mow
– Clear the area before you start walking around
– Keep children and pets away from any flying debris
– Hold the head of the whipper snipper at a 90 degree angle to the edge
– Line up the lawn edge and cord
– Edge slowly but surely, take your time
