For creating an attractive border, bricks can be laid diagonally. For this, a trench is dug and several inches of coarse sand is added for drainage. Bricks are positioned at an angle of about 45 degrees in the trench such that they are half-exposed. The trench is then filled with soil and packed down firmly. Similarly, all the bricks are laid in the adjoining beds.

Easy to lay when without concreting
Assists with drainage during heavy rainfall
Cons
Possibility of displacement of bricks.
Uncontrollable growth of weeds is possible
