Aluminium hanging tag 10 x 2.2cm - sold in packs of 5

These 5 metal hanging tags are both decorative and very useful for remembering the name of plants. They are perforated to be hung with a simple string, directly on the branches and stems of plants, or on the handles of pots and containers on the terrace. Remembering the name of an orchid variety or a herb will be easy once you have recorded it.

Seed packets, as well as printed bands and labels that are provided when purchasing plants, often deteriorate quickly under the combined action of sun and rain, with the name of the plants becoming quickly illegible. These aluminium labels withstand heat and weather well. They can therefore be reused many times. They measure 10cm long by 2.2cm wide in long rectangles with a hole at one end. The name of the plant or any information and message can be written on them with a permanent marker before being put in place. Aluminium is a corrosion-resistant material that is easily recyclable.

Garden labels are very useful accessories that can also be elegant or charming. In ornamental gardens, some perennials or bulbs disappear underground for a good part of the year, and may be destroyed under an unfortunate blow of a spade or pickaxe if they have not been marked. The collector of irises or grasses will appreciate remembering the name of the pretty varieties he has planted. The enthusiast of rare plants for which there is no common name can use the label to jog his memory and present the Latin name of his latest acquisition to visitors. Whether suspended in flower beds, on potted plants, in flower boxes or in a floral arrangement, the aluminium label brings an understated touch of design and modernity.
