Review on Whaline White Plant Labels: Waterproof T-Type Tags (100 Pcs) with Garden Marker Pen by Gregory Plump

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good, inexpensive solution with included pen

UPDATE APRIL 2020:These have worked well for labelling plants in my Chicago streetscape. After two years, the white paint is a bit faded but legible. When the new batch arrives, I’ll reinforce the markings on the old ones. Sometimes kids step on them when they’re covered with snow but they flex without breaking. Easy to push into wet soil; when things are dry, I jab an old knife in the ground to make a channel for the stake portion. Adding a fifth star since they’ve proven to be reliable and useful in my 4 season climate.I bought these to label various perennial plants throughout my yard. The bundled pen’s writing is translucent but OK for this purpose. Unlike the "permanent Sharpie” black markings I used on the much more expensive metal tags I bought to label shrubs, which faded completely after one season in the sun, this white ink is still legible. The plastic is flexible enough that it has been durable so far. I’m much more pleased with these tags than I expected.

Pros
  • 8.98 x 6.77 x 1.42 inches
Cons
  • The marker pen is not suitable for use on other surfaces besides the tags
