Imagine a world where every garden, school yard, and public space becomes an immersive and educational experience. A place where nature and knowledge intertwine to create stunning interpretive trails.
We are excited to introduce a groundbreaking initiative that will transform the way we engage with our surroundings—the Interpretive Trails Project.
With a simple scan using your smartphone, you’ll unlock a whole new level of information and convenience. No more searching through countless books or websites to find details about your plants.
Our planet’s pollinators are in need of our help. With shrinking habitats and changing landscapes, it’s crucial to create pollinator corridors, pathways, patches, and stepping stones to support their vital work. And now, you can be a part of this critical mission with our innovative Outdoor Aluminum Plant Tags!
Each tag showcases the plant’s pollinator-attracting properties, ensuring you make informed choices when designing your garden. From native flowering plants to nectar-rich blooms, every plant tag becomes a symbol of support for our precious pollinators.
You can purchase garden tags at the PollinatorWeb Etsy store
We offer more tags than Etsy allows us to display, so if you’re looking for specific plant, you can view a the list of Plants By Common Name or search for a keyword (recommended, see below)
Because common names can be ambiguous, try searching for a keyword in this page to find a desired plant (the keyword will be highlighted throughout the page, allowing you to scroll down and view the results):
See a gallery of Photos of the Standard Garden Tags here.

Each plant tag is linked to a dedicated web page by a QR code* to provide information about frost sensitivity, watering preferences, bloom times and special values like nectar plant, host plant, bird nesting habitat, hummingbird attractor or native bee favorite.
The plastic tag holder allows you to document specifics about a plant, like hybrid name.
*You can try it now – open the Camera on your smart phone and focus on the QR code – when your phone displays PollinatorWeb.com text, click on it. (Older phones may require you to use a QR Code Scanner app.)
A list of planned tags is provided at the bottom of this page. Stakes not included.
You can buy the plastic plant stakes from Amazon for a great price:

Production Process
I create a file with each ordered tag in a corresponding slot, send it to the laser and the engraving begins. It takes 7 hours to engrave 50 tags.
Afterwards I hand wash each tag to remove residue and drill a mounting hole. Total time from setup to completed original series tags is 8 hours.
The Museum Series
- 4X thicker
- Engraved on our new CO2 laser
- Made for more demanding outdoor applications
- 5″ x 7″ (35 sq inches) allows for descriptive text that can be read from standing height.
Coming Soon to Etsy!


For newer smart phones, just use the Camera app; once it recognizes the QR code you simply select the displayed URL (press on pollinatorweb.com). You may have to enable this feature in your Camera Settings.
Older generation smart phones may require that you download a QR Code Reader app – these are available for free.
Over time we’ll be expanding our tag categories to include helpful reminders and also butterflies, bees and other insects. See other Specialty tags below.
