You want your plant markers to not only look good, but to last for years. Durable stakes and sun and weather-resistant plates are what you are looking for to mark and label your plants. While some people prefer professionally engraved plant markers to forever mark plants, others like the durability and versatility of using quality labels on their name plates.
Markers That Last
The most durable plant markers are made of 100 percent stainless steel that won’t ever rust or wear away. Professionally engraved plant markers are not often stainless steel and are more likely to succumb to temperature and weather wear over the years.
While the grooves of the engraving are forever, the actual plates they are engraved upon may not be able to weather through the years. The readability of those engraved letters may also become difficult. The white paint in the letters of professionally engraved plant markers may fade and make it difficult to read the letters which return to the same color (usually black) as the name plate.
Time For a Little Change?
Using a labeler allows you to change the names on your markers and be creative. Professionally engraved plant markers are permanent, unlike our ever-changing dynamic gardens. In your vegetable gardens you may have a few favorite varieties that you grow year after year. Yet, for other vegetables your tastes may change. After years of green peppers, you may decide you’re more of a banana pepper type of person. When a perennial perishes from weather, insects or disease you might replace its spot with something new. What do you do with those old engraved plant markers? Using a plant marker with a professional labeling system allows you to be versatile and allows you to adapt to the changes in your garden.
With a plant labeler, seasons of creativity can be unleashed. Scientific names can change to common names can change to personal names, like “Mom’s Prized Irises.” Whatever your mood of the season, you can change your plant markers as often or as seldom as you like by creating new labels.
Kincaid Plant Markers offers you durable stainless steel stakes and plates that you won’t have to replace because of wear and tear.
