If you are looking for labels--plastic, about 1" wide, which can be wrapped
aroung the rhizome--a couple years ago I found a place in Canby, Oregon
(home of Schreiner's) where you can walk in and buy how many you want--or
have them printed with your name and address--they come in a roll--and it
works very well to roll them through the typewriter to write the names on
them--they also come in many colors and at least 2 widths--we started using
them for our club sale--white for one price, lt green for another price--and
the name will stay on them through the dipping and washing, then the buyer
can put the label on a stick when the rhizome is planted and it will last
for several years.

the specific ones I got a couple months ago--5 rolls of 1,000 each, for
about $ 19.00 a roll--I have checked 2 other sources here in the west and
cannot beat their price--maybe if I was buying in larger quantities I
could--
I have ordered by phone--put it on a credit card and the labels arrived 2
days later--very nice people to deal with--and they do not care if you are
wholesale or retail--their catalogue has many items in it--they are a
Nursery and Greenhouse supply--
If you are talking about labels to go in the garden--last year I
asked--which are the best--had many answers about the Brother system--bought
the machine and labels cartridges--did about 1,000 labels for the club
garden, and many more for my home garden--am still on the original set of
batteries and it is still going strong! The printing is large enough (you
can adjust it) to read while standing up--the labels survived the winter and
did not come off--they are as good now as when they were put on--no fading
of the black printing--
So the recommendations of several 'listers' was a good one--
Carryl in western Montana--where a few late TB's are still in bloom--not
rebloom--just late ones
