Master MarkTerrace Board, Landscape Coiled Edging, Grass Barrier, Bender Board, Garden Borders 4 in. x 40 ft. with 10 Stakes (Black)

This is very easy to install. It's strong, looks great and the perfect height. The price was right on and very sturdy.

Looks great! Perfect for around our trees and our free form landscaping borders. We did lay it out flat end to end and leave it in the sun for several hours as another review had suggested and this made it very very easy to work with. Seemed like it expanded slightly too as the rocks moved where we held down the edges. I also used it in just a few corners and it was very easy for me to get a right angle by estimating where I wanted that angle, folding it closer to its self, adjusting that fold over as I went so the crisp edge was where I wanted, then I simply gradually applied light pressure by stepping on it to get the corner exactly where I wanted it to be. My husband used a hack saw to cut it to the size needed right in the ground where he wanted the end to be. Recommend applying stakes about every 8-10 INCHES, and at bends and areas where curves are extreme.

Most important the say use the stakes every 4' . I can tell you that is not enough. I out stakes in about every 2' and they also show you putting the stakes on the outside only. I placed one on the outside than a 2' gap and placed one on the inside (see photo). I am hopingnthis will keep the border material in place. But as you can see on my photo you will still have some bowing. I won't know if this is going to do the job that I want it to (which is holding my flower bed mulch inside and allowing me to use a weed eater to trim on the outside). Hopefully it will hold up. I purchased 6 rolls. Also as I stared in the description you will need to make your ground surface a bit loose so you can take out high soon s and fill in low spots in order to get it level.

I had a situation where I placed weed barrier, edge edging and new river rock. used this on my driveway side of an ornamental iron black fence. The yardmen kept knocking river rock into my driveway through the fence. I purchased this typ to block the weed eater and now problem solved. Only wish were more staples . I purchased two extra packs of staples to have on hand to secure 23' of sturdy blocking. I really like it.

The terrace board is sturdy and definetely tall enough for a good layering of mulch. I used metal 9 inch tent hooks to nail it down to the ground. Very easy to shape and adjust and it adds a more structured feeling to the garden. Will definitely buy more for the rest of the garden since one 40ft piece was not nearly enough.

Amazon listing for this item clearly shows "stakes included" but no stakes accompanying the order. The label on the edging states that stakes must be ordered separately. Would not have purchased this item if stakes had not been included.

The product easily worked fine in south Florida sand. Looks good also and should hold up to weekly weed eating machine use--I hope. Much of the length did not need to be supported by stakes. The sand on both outer sides contained the product. I only needed stakes when a total circle was being made. I used either 4 or 5 40' rolls. It looks much nicer than the HD product that has the large lip on the top. Bends smoothly and does not kink.

For yard board, it is easy to install and durable.
