I cant find one to last more than 2 yrs. I use sharpie or statdler. oh bought me a labelling machine and I will have to see how that fares.

I use laundry maker pens the type we use to mark kids clothes with they are the best I have had for labels if they can go though washing then they are fine for plant labels.

Use a pencil, it doesn't fade and stays legible for a long time. The plus side is the labels can be reused... Just rub a bit of damp soil on them to remove the writing.

a carpenters pencil is best .

Thanks everyone, think I,ll try the laundry pen.

I use a Sharpie - cost something like £1.99p (might even have been 99p) from B&M

that's animal cruelty urbanite or im dyslexic lol .

What is dyslexic? Heard 2 dyslexic plumbers talking, one said, can you smell gas? The other one said, I can't even smell my own name.

lol Myron. Depends which Staedler pens you bought. I always use their indelible fine point and have never had any trouble with it.

Why am I being accused of animal cruelty?

very good Myron lol . my dogs are called Chinese sharpie and I just think its cruel to use them to mark your tags urbanite .

I see. Prefer good old-fashioned Heinz 57 dogs myself.

there all good .

Hello and good morning all you crazy folk,
KEEP EM COMING
B.P.

good morning

I use China pencils, had them for ages and have finally found a good use for them. Then I scrape the label with a knife if I want to 're use it.
