These are what my labels look like. These have evolved using tips from several of the forums on this site. I read the daylily forum much of the time and those people can label. :greengrin:
I buy my zinc labels from the lily auction. They run about 40.00 per 100.
Then I use the handy brother P-touch. Mine is a PT-2730. The tape is 34 inch white with Black print. TZe-241
Then I spray the markers with rust-oleum crystal clear enamel.
Here's a few pictures.
I used this box some plants came in to spray the markers
The finished product. The metal spikes are a bit long but I will cut them down
The spray paint I use. I have had these on some of my daylilies for a year or so and they are just as nice as the day I made them.
Hope this helps and my 2 cents. Love Chris's clear plastic ones but I wanted bigger so I don't have to squat or get classes to read.
