Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unpack the Willow Garden Border and assess the desired layout.
- Clear the area where the border will be placed of any debris or obstructions.
- Insert the pointed ends of the willow stakes into the ground to the desired depth. Use a rubber mallet if necessary to drive the stakes firmly into the soil.
- Ensure the border is level and secure.
Compatibility:
The Willow Garden Border is compatible with various garden types, including flower beds, vegetable gardens, and lawns. It can be used on different soil types, though very hard or rocky ground may require pre-drilling holes.
Care:
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the willow with a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt and debris.
- Maintenance: Apply a sealant or wood preserver periodically to protect the willow from the elements and extend its lifespan. The frequency of treatment depends on your local climate.
- Inspection: Inspect the border regularly for any signs of damage or wear and address these issues promptly.
