edging
Lawn perimeter grooming
Edging is the process of creating or trimming a border or boundary—the edge of a lawn, a garden bed, a garment.
As a noun, edging is material used for such borders: decorative edging, brick edging.
In sexual slang, edging is the practice of bringing oneself or a partner close to orgasm repeatedly without completion, prolonging arousal: He's been edging for an hour.
