STAEDTLERGARDEN MARKER PEN PERMANENT OUTDOOR MARKER - [Pack of 2]

These work really well / stand up to UV and don’t fade. Way better than most permanent markers (looking at you sharpie).

I love these pens! I will always have at least three in convenient places. Very permanent ink. Fine point, easy to print small letters. Great for labeling outdoor garden tags or ziplock bags.

These work....don't fade like others. I change my oil in my vehicles and use these markers to write on my window stickers....other brands would fade after a few weeks but these are still very readable after the 5000 miles....virtually no fade.

This is the marker you want. The tip allows for fine print and thicker print by how hard you press. This marker has much more ink, last longer. I've tried the other popular brand and these were faults it had.

I've always wanted one of these pens for labeling my plant starts, since permanent markers fade a lot, if not completely, by the end of summer. This marker stays readable all season long, so I don't lose track of what's what out there with all of my different heirloom veggies in the garden. But, if you don't get the lid on tight, it will dry out, which happened to me. The lid doesn't snap on well. I wonder if, by any chance, they've improved their design by now. For the price, you would think the mechanism of snapping closed would be better.

I liked this pen a lot. The tip didn't get fuzzy when I was using it in the dirty surroundings marking Iris starts.

I've used many markers for my garden tags. I grow about 350-400 peppers in my garden in addition to other vegetables.In the past, my tags have quickly faded in the Texas sun. I've used pencil, ballpoints, and other 'permanent' markers, but they rub off easily or fade in the sun. These markers stay vivid and bold.I've introduced others to this product and they are equally enthusiastic.Kind of pricy, but they work.Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've used many other options. They have flaws (fading due to UV exposure, hard to read, rub off easily). These don't do that.Functionality:It works when other options won't.

Nothing lasts forever on plant labels left exposed to the elements, but this has done the best of any marker I've tried yet. Dries pretty quick and writes smoothly.
