Burpee has those plastic boards with stackable corners. Plastic lumber?
I felt that if
I had to stake them with rebar or something to keep the sides from bowing
out it negated the expense and appeal of the nice white lines. Maybe they
are way advanced and improved now too. Hope that is helpful. I did use a
couple of alternatives that have worked better for me if you are
interested let me know. Good luck and if you do try them let us know.

Perhaps if you drilled a hole down thru the middle of the plastic lumber and inserted the rebar thru the holes and hammered them flush with the surface, it wouldn't be much of a detractor to the look.
