Enhancing Privacy with Landscape Edging and Strategic Planting

Creating a private oasis in your outdoor space is a common desire for many homeowners. By combining the structural benefits of landscape edging with strategic planting, you can achieve both privacy and beauty in your garden.

Here's how to enhance your outdoor privacy using Kinley's professional edging products and clever planting techniques.

The Foundation: Landscape Edging

Landscape edging serves as the perfect foundation for your privacy-enhancing garden design. Kinley's metal garden edging offers several advantages:

• Defined Boundaries: Our edging creates clear separations between different areas of your garden, allowing for strategic plant placement.
• Durability: Made to withstand tough conditions, our metal edging ensures your garden structure remains intact for years to come.
• Versatility: The flexibility of our edging products allows for creative designs, including curved sections that can add depth and interest to your privacy plantings

Strategic Planting for Privacy

With your edging in place, it's time to focus on plant selection and placement:

Layered Approach

Create a multi-layered effect using plants of varying heights:

• Tall Background: Use trees or large shrubs as a backdrop.
• Mid-height Plants: Fill in with medium-sized shrubs or ornamental grasses.
• Low-growing Foreground: Add smaller plants or groundcover at the front.

This layered approach not only enhances privacy but also adds visual interest to your garden.

Evergreen Selections

For year-round privacy, incorporate evergreen plants:

• Cypress trees
• Boxwood shrubs
• Holly bushes

These provide consistent coverage and act as a living fence.

Edging as a Design Element

Kinley's edging products can be used creatively to enhance your privacy plantings:

• Raised Beds: Use our stronger edging products to create elevated planting areas, adding height to your privacy screen.
• Curved Designs: Take advantage of the flexibility of our metal edging to create curved planting areas, which can make your space feel larger and more private.

Landscape Edging Maintenance and Longevity

One of the key benefits of combining Kinley's edging with strategic planting is the low maintenance required:

• Defined Spaces: Our edging prevents plant spread, keeping your privacy screen neat and contained.
• Durability: The long-lasting nature of our metal edging means less time spent on repairs and more time enjoying your private outdoor space.
