Seed packets, as well as printed bands and labels provided when purchasing plants, often deteriorate quickly under the combined action of sunlight and rain, with the plant names becoming illegible. On the other hand, these plastic labels withstand heat and weather conditions better. This model has a pointed end that can be directly planted into the soil of a flowerpot or container, or even into the foam of a floral arrangement, for example. The plant's name and any other information can be written on it using a water-resistant marker before being placed.

Plant labels are essential accessories. In the vegetable garden, it is essential to identify lettuce, radish, or carrot seedlings, as well as varieties of melons or squashes. In ornamental gardens, some perennials or bulbs disappear underground for a good part of the year and may be accidentally damaged by a shovel or hoe if not marked. Iris or grass enthusiasts will appreciate being able to remember the names of the lovely varieties they have planted. The enthusiast of rare plants for which there is no common name can, thanks to the label that comes to the aid of their memory, proudly present the Latin name of their latest acquisition to their amazed visitors. Plant labels also sometimes play an educational role in open gardens.
