The best plant markers for identifying flowers and plants in your garden

By

Plant markers help you keep track of everything that’s growing in your garden. If your plants are just starting out, plant markers will help you differentiate one plant from another. If you are picking out food, they can help you and other family members pick the right herbs or veggies when you want something fresh to cook.

There are many different styles of garden plant markers, so consider what you need out of a plant marker. You may want something small if you want them to blend in and not be noticeable. If you want these markers for your own reference, small wooden markers might be best. On the other hand, large, more ornate markers can add to the look of your garden and impress visitors.

Kinglake Nursery Garden Pot Marker

Best Rust-Resistant

You will not find any rust or weathering when you use the Kinglake Nursery Garden Pot Marker set. These white labels are made of PVC plastic, so they stay clean and in one piece. They are convenient to use, too. Simply write on the 4-inch plastic tags and stake them into a small pot or a plot of dirt. They stay durable and UV-resistant.

Mziart Nursery Garden Pot Markers

Best Multicolor Markers

If you love color coding, then you will be excited to use the Mziart Nursery Garden Pot Markers. These markers come in six different colors to help separate all of your labels into different categories. The colors are vibrant, so you can see them from any distance. The smooth edges of the UV-resistant plastic markers will not hurt your plants. They easily stick into the soil for a simple setup.

Bosmere Metal Plant Marker

Best Tall Marker

Looking for a tall marker to show off your plant’s names? The Bosmere Metal Plant Marker will help you see all of your plant’s labels without having to crouch down to the floor. Each label is made of durable Bosmere zinc. Use the carbon pencil to create permanent labels that will last for years (the carbon in the pencil will create a reaction with the zinc name label).

Your garden will not only look beautiful, but it will be well-organized with these plant markers. You will have an easier time tracking your garden’s progress and caring for your plants. Choose the labels you like best, and start taking care of your garden better than before.
