Everedge For this Border

Hi got this border and was hoping to smarten it up with Everedge or similar. 

Do you think it would improve it? If so should I get the deepest one. I gather the deeper one can stop the grass running underneath the barrier and spreading into the border.

Also which colour one do you generally think looks the best?

Ahhh, the 6mb limit on pics is frustrating.

Hopefully this works:

    I love Everedge and it has changed my garden significantly and should outlast me.

    I think (generally) it opens up all sorts of possibilties.

    @Fire I have Everedge around a new lawn planted last November. The landscaper did it so I am not sure what depth. They didn't cut it but bent it instead. Not sure why is it likely to rust?
    I assume in time it will disappear and I will be able to cut the edges with shearers as normal?

    Part of the pitch is that it can be moulded / bent fairly easily - you buy sections, you can buy curves or straight lengths. No, it won't rust away, it will last decades. I guess you should move them if they are not in the right place for you, Suze.

    Ivy, regarding colour - I think that would be down to personal preferance. I went for Cort-Ten/ to rust, as I love the rust colours. It blends in and virtually disappears. If you want "smart" then maybe another colour might give a more contemporary feel.

    Personally, I like products I get that will outlast my lifetime and do what they say on the tin, and Everedge is one of those. I don't have grass, so can't speak to use with lawns.
