[Taxacom] plant labels

[Jennifer Tate]

Hi everyone,

Massey University has several thousand plant species growing on 
campus and we would like to begin labeling some of these as part of a 
project for our Flora course.  We are searching for an economical way 
to label the plants that will stand up to local weather conditions 
(lots of rain, wind, and high UV during the summer).  I would 
appreciate any info from those of you at arboreta, botanical gardens, 
parks, or others who have undertaken a similar endeavor.  We are 
particularly interested in recommendations of companies that will 
pre-print attractive signs at a reasonable cost.  Our local resources 
are prohibitively expensive ($20 per sign).

Thanks in advance,
Jennifer
