Step-by-step

Step 1
Inscribe the wooden plant labels and use these to label different herbs in your herb bed. The versatile edding calligraphy marker is ideal for this. Its waterproof ink holds extremely well on rough surfaces and is, of course, weatherproof. You can either use the edding calligraphy marker to write large letters, or the edding calligraphy pen with its finer tip to write smaller text on the containers. Just give free rein to your creativity!

Step 2
For plant pots with rough surfaces such as terracotta, we recommend our edding calligraphy marker. With its extremely flexible, soft calligraphy tip it will help you create lettering with real impact.

Step 3
To help you identify herbs that you've planted in wooden containers or planters, inscribe the metal plant labels with the edding 755 gloss paint marker with calligraphy nib. This edding marker features a robust calligraphy tip which creates a shiny effect with brilliant ink, particularly on smooth surfaces. When the labels have dried, screw them onto the wooden containers or tie them on loosely with ribbon.
