Timber suits a cottage border better than metal, and this grey four piece set keeps things low at 28cm high across a 243cm span. Each panel is listed at 64.5cm long and 1.5cm thick, sturdy enough to hold a line yet slight enough that bedding plants still show above it. A protective varnish seals the wood against rain and dew through the seasons. Connecting anchors join one panel to the next, letting the border follow a straight lawn edge or ease around a curved bed. Nothing needs digging in, so a whole run goes down in an afternoon and lifts again for mowing.
