    Abstract: The vegetation blocking fence edging assembly includes a fence structure (A), a plurality of elongated edging strips (B), and a plurality of fence post edging structures (C). The fence structure includes a plurality of mounting posts (10) between which a fencing medium (12) extends. The edging strip has U-shaped slots (42) at its longitudinal ends (30) which are adapted to be received around the fence mounting posts. The edging strip includes a longitudinally extending, generally J-shaped portion (32) made up of a U-shaped portion (34) for receiving the lower edge of the fence medium and a single guide edge (36) for engaging one face of the fence.
