I wonder where one could purchase those wire label holders in the last photograph? Does anybody know?

 Paddy, here is a link to an amercian supplier but I haven't been able to find a European one yet.....

This is where I get all my black jumbo labels from - they do some metal label bits

These label legs probably fit the bill too, but they are not cheap

Maggi, John and Brian,

I am using all different labels at the moment.  I like the Alitags as invisible markers as they last so long (unless trod on over and over).  I write on them with the special pencil that they sell and it is very permanent.  I have also bought some black Jumbo markers to try with a silver paint pen.

On bigger clumps of snowdrops I am using metal tags with a nameplate that I imported from the USA.  It really did not work out too expensive and I needed them for my daylilies.  For the snowdrops I write on them with a black paint pen and it makes life very easy when taking photographs.  I have the link somewhere if anyone is interested.  Pity we do not have such labels available in England.  I also use them on my Hellebores and Hostas.

Only just awake here and still bleary eyed - I looked at your picture and thought "I've not heard of Gal(anthus) 'Iddy Biddy'" - then I enlarged the picture and saw it was a day lilly.
