Garden hose damage

When watering your garden or flowerbeds, it is difficult to avoid "bumping" into the corner plants with the hose. Small wooden stakes placed in strategic areas can help and will protect the plants, but they tend to be rather unsightly in a flowerbed. The Domaine des Fleurs in St-Pacôme de Kamouraska suggests that you try burying flowerpots halfway into the soil in key areas. The hose will slide around the pots without damaging your plants or flowers.
