What happens here

Carefully lay the rubber mulch mats into the prepared landscape bed. Position the mats snugly against any existing borders, such as the walkway, paver edging, or decorative stepping stones seen in the video. If the mats need to be cut to fit specific shapes or around obstacles like solar lights, use a heavy-duty utility knife or strong shears. Ensure the edges of the mats meet closely to prevent gaps. For a curved path, some mats may require multiple relief cuts or smaller pieces to conform to the shape.

Goal: Lay the rubber mulch mats to form the desired landscape border.
