Default Looking for something but don't know it's name

I'm trying to find the name of those little wooden fence type things
that I've seen used in flower gardens. They're about 1ft high, usually
white, made of wood or plastic that looks like wood. I think they're
either for decoration in flower gardens or perhaps to keep out small
animals. They might not have even been originally made to use in
flower gardens.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? If so, could you tell me what
these things are called?

Not sure what they are called, but I always see them sold in rolls at
the box stores.

A tripping and mowing hazard? g

Try "picket fence edging", "flower bed edging", "garden edging".
I see it at just about all the chain hardware stores and big box home stores.
