We moved to a new place a couple of months ago. We are learning the new garden. Here's the problem:

Right next to the back porch of our new place is a rock garden. That rock garden is flawed genius - genius because different plants bloom one right after the other with no let up and flawed because, well, look at the wash of dirt onto the boards.

We have painters coming in a week. This is probably a temporary fix. Eventually, we would like to replace these boards with fieldstone. Until then, what kind of barrier do we put up to keep the dirt from washing onto the porch?
