My patio enclosure has a gutterless dripedge. The only thing that has worked
is the heavy pine bark mulch lined with brick. I hate the look of this mulch,
yet the rain just doesn't seem to wash it across my back yard. At one time I
had flagstones under the drip edge. After a couple of years a groove was being
cut right through them.
