Once you've got your pond underlay and pond liner sorted, installed your pond pump and filled your pond, the best way to add a finishing touch to your project is with pond edging. Swell UK make two types of pond edging, natural and mottled.
Pond edging is essentially a mix of stones fixed to a thin strip of fabric that sits on the shore of your pond. It creates a visual edge that gives the pond a more modern finish while also offering a helpful climbing surface for any amphibious pondlife like newts. It's easy to install and requires no adhesive or fixings.
Pond edging looks great and offers some nice climbing surfaces for any amphibious pond life. It's also useful in a garden with children as it can help them to understand where the pond edge is.
We offer two types of pond edging, mottled and natural. The mottled edging is made up of black and white stones which blend in with a timeless, classic style, while the natural edging is made up of earthy tones that will suit most gardens. Apart from the colour, both types of pond edging are the same.
Make sure that you buy enough pond edging to cover the entire shoreline of your pond. You should measure the length of your shoreline and then decide the width of stone liner roll you'll need to completely cover all pipes, cables and seams.
