A plant label QR code with care advice
The stake is too small for care advice. One scan shows light, water, feeding and hardiness for that exact variety.
A plant label QR code opens the care guide for that variety: light, watering, feeding, hardiness and when to repot. Write one short page per variety, paste each link above or make the whole range at once in the bulk tool, and print the code on the stake or hanging tag in waterproof material.
Yellow leaves, one scan
A customer scans the stake still in the pot and finds why the leaves turn yellow and how often to water.
How to label a plant range with care codes
One page per variety
Light, water, feeding, hardiness and size at maturity, with one photo of the plant grown on. Keep it to one phone screen of reading.
Make the codes in bulk
List variety names and page links in a sheet and upload it to the bulk tool. Every variety gets its own code and file name.
Print on outdoor stock
Polypropylene or synthetic tag stock survives watering and sun. Paper labels go soft in a week on a wet bench.
Keep the pages current
New advice or a better photo? Update the page or point the editable code at it, and every stake in the shop and in gardens shows it.
Worked example: a garden centre with 300 varieties
- The labels
- Stake labels of 2.5 × 12 cm carry the variety name, the price and a 1.8 cm code above the soil line, where it stays clean.
- The care page
- "Bright, indirect light. Water when the top 3 cm are dry. Feed monthly from April to September. Not frost hardy." Plus a photo at three years.
- At home
- Customers keep the stake in the pot and scan it months later when leaves yellow, and the page answers before they phone the shop.
Fixed or editable for plant labels?
-
Fester QR-Code (statisch)
A fixed code holds the link to the care page on your own site. It is free and right when page addresses never change.
-
Bearbeitbarer QR-Code (dynamisch) Unsere Empfehlung für diesen Zweck
Editable codes let you move care pages to a new site or shop system without reprinting stakes that are already in customers' gardens, and they show which varieties people look up most. From $9 a month after the 14-day trial.
Label specs that last outdoors
Size by label
Stakes and hanging tags take a code of 1.5 to 2 cm. Bench signs read from a step away need 4 cm or more.
Ink that stays black
Thermal transfer ribbon with resin ink resists water and fading better than desktop inkjet. Test a label after a week on the outdoor bench.
Hardiness in plain words
Give the coldest temperature the plant survives next to the rating you use, such as RHS H4 or USDA zone 7, because most buyers know neither scale.
Fragen und Antworten
Bevor Sie drucken
- Ist das kostenlos?
- Feste Codes sind kostenlos: Erstellen Sie so viele Sie möchten, laden Sie ein PNG ohne Anmeldung herunter und erhalten Sie jedes weitere Format und Druckdateien mit einem kostenlosen Konto. Bearbeitbare Codes gibt es mit einem Tarif, einem Pass, Keep-alive oder der 14-tägigen Testphase.
- Kann ich den Link nach dem Druck ändern?
- Ja, mit einem bearbeitbaren Code. Er enthält einen Kurzlink, den Sie steuern: Sie können den gedruckten Code jederzeit auf ein neues Ziel richten, und der nächste Scan öffnet die neue Seite. Ein fester Code behält den Link, mit dem er erstellt wurde.
- Kann ich meine eigene Domain nutzen?
- Ja. Eine eigene Domain ist in Pässen, ab Starter und während der Testphase enthalten. Starter umfasst eine Subdomain, zum Beispiel go.ihremarke.de, Hauptdomains gibt es ab Pro.
- Was passiert, wenn ich nicht mehr zahle?
- Bearbeitbare Codes funktionieren bis zum Ende des bezahlten Zeitraums, und nach einer fehlgeschlagenen Zahlung funktionieren alle Codes noch 14 Tage weiter. Schalten Sie Codes innerhalb von 12 Monaten wieder ein. Feste Codes funktionieren, solange ihre Links funktionieren.
What should a plant label code link to?
A short care page for that exact variety, not your homepage. Light, water, feeding and hardiness are what people look for when they scan.
How big should the code be on a plant stake?
1.5 to 2 cm wide on a stake or hanging tag. Put it above the soil line, so watering and compost do not cover it.
Will the code survive watering and sun?
On synthetic tag stock with resin ink, yes, for a season or more. Paper and desktop inkjet labels smudge on a wet bench.
Can I make codes for hundreds of varieties at once?
Yes. Upload a sheet with one row per variety to the bulk tool and download every code, named by variety, ready for your label software.
Can one care page cover several varieties?
It can for close relatives with the same needs, such as colour forms of one plant. Give them a shared page and keep the variety name on the stake.
Can I see which plants people look up?
With editable codes, the scan counts per variety show which plants send customers to their care page, a useful hint for staff training and stock.
