General design description
To decorate a spectacular landscape at their summer cottage, experienced designers use various types of border ribbons. Thanks to a simple adaptation, flowers or vegetables, growing, practically do not mix. As a result, the original design of the bed remains unchanged, which helps to maintain the overall beauty of the design.
For example, a plastic border bed - "Garden Board", creates the image of a wooden board. But, unlike the original, it is much stronger, which increases the service life. Plastic does not lend itself to external influences, therefore it remains unchanged for many years.
The maximum length of the tape is 50 meters, the height is 15 cm, and the thickness is 1.2 mm. It is produced in rolls of 10 or 50 meters and comes in the following texture:
- wavy;
- flat;
- curly;
- corrugated.
The design allows the formation of the following structures:
- high-quality vegetable beds;
- multi-tiered flower beds;
- children's sandboxes.
In addition, it is easy, convenient and fast to work with the tape, which helps to save precious time, which is wasted.
Thanks to the different texture of the tape, you can create original types of beds, flower beds and lawns, giving them the desired shape.
Installation tips
To install a border tape for beds in a summer cottage or garden, you need to prepare a set of tools:
- scheme of the conceived design;
- border tape;
- scissors or a sharp knife;
- soldering iron or liquid nails.
It is desirable to carry out the work with an assistant. To begin with, they separate the site and plow it. The depth is determined by the types of plants that will be planted in the garden. For example, the roots of perennial plants penetrate much deeper than annuals. Depending on this, the height of the tape is selected.
The next step is to dig a small trench around the entire perimeter or circumference of the future site. Gently insert the tape perpendicular to the soil, fix it and cover it with earth. The construction is ready.
As you can see, with the help of curb tapes, you can create beds of various shapes in your summer cottage without much effort. And the result is an original landscape design for the summer cottage area.
