Abstract: An edging border device for controlling growth of vegetation adjacent an object such as a grave marker is disclosed. The device includes a material sheet that has one or more openings suitable for enabling the material sheet to contact at least a portion of an object present in the opening. The material sheet includes one or more extending portions that extend away from an opening whereby the material sheet enables control of growth of vegetation adjacent the object and beneath the device. The extending sheet may have a decorative surface finish to compliment the appearance of the object present in an opening. An extending portion may be formed of any one or more of permeable materials, impermeable materials or combinations thereof. An extending portion may include one or more agricultural control agents wherein the control agents include one or more of herbicidal agents, fungicidal agents, insecticidal agents and mixtures thereof.
