Plant Markers...

[stevenkh1]

Hi All,

When I go to my local nursery to peruse plants, they always have plant markers with an image of the plant and the variety silk screened on the marker.

Is there a vendor where these can be purchased from? If so, where?

Thank you in advance,

Steve

I know of one place where they sell both wholesale and retail, but you have to buy them, for any one variety, in bulk amounts which I don't think would work for you. And of course the number of varieties they list is nowhere's near what's available as to varieties, but for much more money you can get them custom printed for certain varieties but I don't think you want to go there.

The ones that amuse me the most are the ones that just say large red, or small pink, as in generic labels.

There are a few catalogs like HPS, and I think Harris, that have a list of tags in the back of the catalog. They are called "Pixie Stakes". But like Carolyn memtioned, the minimum order is 3,000, with 100 / variety.

There are also a couple of vendors that sell a system where you can print your own tags with your computer. The problem is you need to have a laser printer and only certain brands and models will work with their tags. Of course they also SELL complete printing systems that will only work with their tags. Sorry i don't remember their name any more.

Even tho I have a pretty good "home office" set-up, I've never been able to use their stuff or afford the custom stuff.
