Patio

We just had a patio built, we bought the furniture to put on it and it looked great, my problem is what kind of edging works the best? I need edging for 3 sides of the patio and I hate that it gets so dirty!!! We do live in the country, just looking for suggestions! Thanks!

      @Jennifer Lynn I will take some tomorrow! It looks a mess right now! We bought a small swimming pool but I am not happy with it taking up so much of the space so it is coming down soon, it will have to anyway because of cold weather.

    Raised off the patio, planter boxes on wheels that allow you to hose off the area. If you are looking for direct into the ground privacy use hedge type plants best planted two feet away from the edge to allow for growth. Lots of choices.

    we thought about that, but my husband wants something that is contained. I was thinking ground cover, but that can be invasive too. thanks for the suggestion!
