Hanging tag made of natural rectangular slate

A rectangular-shaped hanging label made of natural and authentic slate, which has been perforated to allow for the passage of an attachment string or a label holder. Decorative, it is also very useful for remembering the name of each plant in the garden, greenhouse, terrace, or vegetable patch, while adding a touch of elegance to the plantings.

Seed packets, as well as printed ribbons and labels provided when purchasing plants, often deteriorate quickly under the combined action of sunlight and rain, with the names of the plants becoming quickly illegible. On the other hand, these La Cordeline labels, made of slate, withstand heat and time. They can therefore be reused many times. The name of the plant or any information and message can be written on them using a simple chalk, an alcohol-erasable chalk pen, or even white paint, before being put in place. It is then sufficient to pass a string or a label holder through the hole provided for this purpose to hang it on the plant that you want to name. Natural slate is an ecological and environmentally friendly material, its dust, chips, and gravel are also used in soil amendments.

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 disappear under an unfortunate blow from a spade or pickaxe if they have not been identified. 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 aid of his memory, proudly present the Latin name of his latest acquisition to his amazed visitors. Whether attached to a potted plant, a flower box, or a floral arrangement, the slate label always has its little effect. Finally, naming a plant is an excellent way to awaken children's interest in nature, in all its diversity.
