You can curve boards along a path edge:
Dealing with curves
Curves, arcs or radii will need the stakes to be spaced closer together, to achieve a 'sweet' curve. The stakes may be only 300mm apart on tight curves, and it is sometimes necessary to cut the boards into short lengths, as forcing a full-length board around the curve could cause it to split or crack. On slow or medium curves, cut shallow notches, no more than 8mm deep at roughly 25mm centres, into one face of the board, as this will help the board to bend and reduce the risk of splitting the timber. This is sometimes known as "kerfing".
