Lanscape Edging


Does anyone happen to have any slightly used, black landscape edging? I need about 60' for a new garden area that will have a flowering dogwood on one end and a 60' willow oak on the other. Gonna put some shrubs and flowers in between.

Let me know if you have any or if you know of a good place I can get it for cheap.

I'm not a cheap-o, I'm just in college and working part time, LOL.

You might try calling some landscaping companies in your area and ask if they have any leftovers/scraps you could take off their hands. Even if they don't have any on hand, they might be willing to save some from their next few projects.

Are you talking about the plastic edging that is in a roll? If so I have TONS of it I could send for the postage. Just let me know.

landscaping companies sounds like a good idea to me to (PlantSwap). I was needing some pickets for a small fence I wanted to put up to separate my yard. I called a fencing company and asked if they had any old pickets they might need to get rid of. They were more than happy for me to get rid of it for them. Maybe some landscapers are in the same boat!
