Building New Flower Beds and getting the PERFECT EDGE!

When we built our barn we didn't do much in the way of landscaping around the barn. We just planted grass right up to the side of the building. Since this is one of the first things you see when you pull in the driveway we decided to dress it up with a new flower bed. This seems like a big job and it is, but we were able to do a few things to speed the process up as well as get the perfect transition between the lawn and beds WITHOUT using any type of edging!

Great video. I watched a few and this is one of the better ones I’ve come across. Thank you

Great video, i have my first flower bed to build this weekend. Also im planting some hedges, so this video really came in handy. 🙏

[orangeduc]

Thanks for your info and timely needed video

Damn... You made this look so much easier than I was expecting. I thought I had to dig up all the dirt along the side of my house. I didn't realize I could just put landscape fabric down and build on top of that. Wicked!

Snapshot is a awesome weed and grass control thats safe for shrubs and trees..just a different alternative to using the weed mat.

Is there any update on what this area looks like now?

[Croy]

You should always cut the grass and weed wack next to the bed before mulching, because the grass clipping get into the newly fresh mulch bed

[Skywalker_OC]

You could of save the sod to patch that rough area next to your bed. 😁

Mulch near your foundation is not actually a good thing. It eventually attract termites. Best this is to leave At least 6 inch space and fill it with stone or some other barrier

[PeteyPablo]

Is there something you would recommend to put up against the vinyl wall of the house for a raised retaining wall type flower bed since it will be about 15 inches in dirt and will get water?

[campbellmanagement]

Try to cut grass and mow before the mulch . It will give a better look and cleaner mulch . If your landscaping, customers like the cleaner look when your finishing, guaranteed!

[bruizzr]

Only change I would make is planting the flowers first then putting the sheet in last. Cut a cross over the flowers and pull she down staple them around the roots.

I like to run a second edger line on the inside of the bed before using the spade edger at an angle

[craigspringer]

Looks good.. i need the tools to do it..

[jeredmattson]

great video, now that it’s been a couple years would you have done anything differently? i plan to copy your project!

[addisondixon]

Should have loosened up the root balls on those plants before planting them ..the roots won't spread properly and will grow in a circle pattern in the hole and will eventually choke the plants.

Great video! What kind of boots and pants are those. If I’m doing this.. I gotta look the part. Lol
