I think it may be easier to find a Stabilio stockist too.
or a pencil?
Sorry to say Hosta, your pencils don’t stay on here, I have nice plants, not named 😀 they are ok in the GH but I have yet to find a pencil for outside use that’s long lasting. the pens I usually use have gone up this year to £6.00 for two, and although extremely long lasting outside, I think that’s a bit expensive. I am going to try the sharpies, like the idea of the fine nib to write heights of plants on the labels. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Black-SHARPIE-Permanent-Marker-Ultra/dp/B00PHL6CMM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

I find Sharpies wash off (outside) in a matter of months. Write-for-all are on for £2.30. I put out some test markers with these and they are stable for at least a year with no fading. Thanks to the forum for recommending them.
