Personally, I would use a lighter piece of hose on the stake, so that it would
 show up.  I can't count the number of times I have gotten my feet tangled up 
in the bottom end of tent ropes because the tent owner tied 'warning flags' 
halfway down the tent rope but didn't indicate where the ground end of it 
was!!  It's very annoying (and potentially dangerous) to trip just when you 
think you're far enough away from the tent to avoid the stakes!
