Here we grow again. That line is cast into the bottom of this sunflower sign, with “Welcome to” above and a short name line between them. The Garden Flower personalized lawn plaque is the cheerful one in the collection, and it’s ordered mostly for vegetable gardens and for anyone who replants the same bed every spring with the same optimism.

A short name line

You get one line of up to 9 characters at 1.25 inches tall. That’s shorter than most garden plaques because the welcome and the saying are already cast around it. “Kathy’s” from the photo uses 7, so most first names with an apostrophe-s fit. Longer names may need to drop the possessive. Count spaces as characters.

What the Garden Flower personalized lawn plaque is cast from

Recycled aluminum is the material, and the casting is done in the USA. It won’t rust, which matters for a sign that gets watered along with the tomatoes. The sunflower, both sayings, and your name are all part of the same casting. An all-weather coating protects the finish and is warranted for five years.

Finish choices

The Garden Flower personalized lawn plaque is offered in Antique Copper, Black/Gold, Bronze/Gold, and Green/Gold. The photo shows Bronze/Gold, which gives the sunflower a warm, aged look. Green/Gold is popular for vegetable beds, since it blends with the foliage until you’re close. Black/Gold reads best from the kitchen window.

Several other designs in the Garden Collection include a cast welcome line, including the Garden Welcome plaque and the Ivy Trellis Garden Welcome plaque, if a sunflower isn’t the right flower for your beds. For the hose that always ends up in the lettuce, the cast hose holders keep it off the ground. Proofread the name on your Garden Flower personalized lawn plaque before you order. Because the lettering is cast, personalized plaques can’t be modified, cancelled, or returned once placed.
