The oak you grew from an acorn. The first tree in a new orchard. I made the Landmark for plants like these. It's a large engraved marker for trees, shrubs, and orchards, with room for the full common name, the scientific name, and up to three more lines, and it stands tall enough to clear mulch and low growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI engrave every Landmark in my Phoenix studio on cast two-tone acrylic. My laser cuts through the top layer to show the core color underneath, so the lettering is part of the panel itself. There's no ink or paint to fade or peel in the sun. The panel is mounted on a stake cut from solid aluminum bar, 1\" wide and 1\/8\" thick. That's wider than the 3\/4\" stakes most botanical gardens use, so it stays upright through wind, sprinklers, and heavy watering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore I engrave anything, I check the spelling and botanical format of every name. If something looks off, I'll message you first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Panel 5.2\" wide x 2.9\" high\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStake:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\" solid aluminum bar, 1\" x 1\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLettering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engraved through the top layer to the core color beneath\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePersonalization:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 5 lines of text\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose your color\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard, no extra cost:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black with white lettering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial order, +$1.95 per marker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue, Green, Red, Maroon, Orange, Purple, or Brown with white lettering, or Yellow, Almond, or White with black lettering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial order, +$2.95 per marker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold or Brushed Gold with black lettering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI keep a sheet or two of most colors on hand.
