 o
brass/copper plant markers

I'm looking for plant/garden markers that are brass or copper. I went to a flower show and one of the entries had these beautiful metal markers. The markers were were either copper or brass, I'm not sure which. The stick part that went into the ground looked like a miniature shepards hook. And the part you would write the name on was a decoratively shaped brass or copper plate that had a small hole at the top so that you could thread it through the top of the hook. If anyone knows of a vendor on line that I could check out please let me know. My sister is looking for them and I would like to surprise her with them.

could be Lee Valley, who's got most of the really cool garden bits...

could very well have been hand made- there's nothing stopping most gardeners from using coat hanger wire (tough stuff, don't use your jewelry making tools on it- use the pliers in the garage) and copper flashing :)
