    a flat flexible anchoring strip along the other longitudinal edge of the web constructed and arranged to overlie and to conform to the ground contour of the unmowable area adjacent the mowable area; and

    a retainer portion integral with and intermediate said mowing strip and said anchoring strip;

    said mowing strip and said anchoring strip being penetrable at longitudinally spaced intervals by stakes to secure said web to the ground;
