Weatherproof Slate Vegetable Garden Markers

If you are looking for durable, long-lasting weather proof garden plant markers, I have the solution you seek. After using these Reusable Natural Slate Hanging Tags for several years, I can honestly recommend them to my readers.

I spend many hours creating a beautiful garden to work in. From building the raised beds, to sharing how to create a beautiful garden and even what I grow in the garden there is a lot to this space.

What Can I Use For Weatherproof Plant Markers

If you are looking for inspiration to use as plant labels in the vegetable garden there are plenty of online ideas to try. From hand-painted rocks to using broken terracotta pots, or even paint stirrer sticks, the options are endless.

For our garden, for the most part, I plant the same vegetables each year. So, I needed a more long-lasting and reusable option year after year.

Best Weatherproof Slate Vegetable Garden Markers

Heavy Duty Metal Brackets

The reusable slate garden markers come in a set of 10 with heavy-duty rustproof metal brackets. The metal doesn’t bend when inserted in the soil and has lasted for a long time outdoors.

Each metal bracket is shaped in an h-shape at the bottom of the bracket. This ensures that the labels stay put, and straight for easy identification for each plant.

Real Slate Slabs

When I ordered the weatherproof vegetable garden markers made of slate, I was surprised to find they were thick, strong, and easy to write on. Each plant label marker measures a thickness of 4-6 cm, and I have never had one break.

Supplies for Long Lasting Weatherproof Plant Labels

• Slate Labels
• White Sharpie Paint Pen

How to Write on a Slate Plant Label

I call this a very semi-DIY project. Once the package arrives, unwrap all the slate labels and metal stakes. Then, using a white sharpie pen, write the name of each plant on the label.

Give the ink a few moments to dry, hang the slate label on the metal hook, and place it in the garden.

This super simple project adds a great deal of character and beauty to the garden. These slate garden markers can be used with chalk.

However, chalk could wash off in the rain. So, while a sharpie pen is permanent, planting the same vegetables each year is easily reusable.

I hope these weatherproof hanging slate vegetable plant markers add some inspiration and beauty to your garden.
