Natural chestnut labels, with an authentic appearance, that can be directly planted in the ground. Both high-quality and decorative, they are also very useful for completing your plantings, by writing the names of flowers and bushes or seedlings on them. The inscriptions will be made with a marker or graphite pencil. Handcrafted in France.

These rectangular plantable labels are handcrafted in Brittany using natural chestnut wood. Braving the elements, they bear the name of the plant, care instructions, origin, planting date, the name of the breeder of a variety, or any information deemed useful by the gardener. Useful, this reminder is also very decorative and blends perfectly with the garden, terrace or vegetable patch decor.

 

Seed packets, as well as printed bands and labels provided when purchasing plants, often deteriorate quickly under the combined action of sun and rain, with the plant names becoming quickly illegible. On the other hand, these labels distributed by Comptoir Botanique, made of chestnut wood, known for its hardness and natural resistance to wood-boring insects, withstand heat and the effects of weather better. This model is in the form of a brown wooden plaque, randomly traversed with darker veins. Its pointed end is planted directly into the soil, potting mix or into the moss of a floral composition for example. The plant name, any information or message can be written on it using a marker or graphite pencil before placement. Chestnut wood is an environmentally friendly material that is compostable.

The company 'Comptoir Botanique', located in Locquénolé in northern Finistère, entrusts over 80% of its production to ESAT (Establishments and Service for Assistance through Work), a collaboration it has been carrying out for several years.

Garden labels are very useful accessories that can also be elegant or charming to enhance plants and gardens. In the vegetable garden, it is essential to identify the sowings of lettuce, radishes or carrots, as well as the varieties of melons or squash. In ornamental gardens, some perennials or bulbs disappear underground for a good part of the year and may be accidentally dug up if not marked. The collector of irises or grasses will appreciate being able to remember the names of the beautiful varieties he has planted. The enthusiast of rare plants for which there is no common name can, thanks to the label that comes to the rescue of his memory, present to his amazed visitors the Latin name of his latest acquisition. The plant label sometimes also plays an educational role in open gardens. Whether placed in the garden, in a pot, a flower box or in a basket of plants and flowers, the natural wood label always has its little effect. Finally, naming a plant is an excellent way to awaken children's interest in nature and its diversity.
