Labels & Guards
PERMANENT LABELS
Flexible plastic labels
are readable for less
than a year. We offer sturdy alu mi num labels with malleable
wire. These labels will be readable and stay on the tree for
years. Use a pencil or ballpoint pen to inscribe variety name,
rootstock etc. They are useable on both sides. Order one for
each of the plants you purchase. Tie each loosely around a side
branch so it won’t girdle the branch as it grows. T485: 10 for

and at the same time

on the label. T448
