As the name implies, Plastic Self-ties are secure, easy-to-use, self-tying labels perfectly suited to being tied around the stems of plants, or through slots in the upper rim of plant containers, allowing for quick and easy identification of the plants and giving any relevant information, like planting date, species and variety. Because it is tied to the plant, there is minimal chance of the label being lost over time. Untied, they can be partially inserted into the soil of any container holding a plant, to perform the same information-giving function. The range of colours allows for the rapid and easy identification of different batches of similar plants, or to indicate any distinction between plants, or any other items, that are similar in appearance.
