I use metal plant labels like the ones in this link:

To them I stick labels from a label maker. I use a label maker that uses TZ tape such as the one here:

Home Depot sells sheets of thin metal, you could probably cut it into pieces and make your own sized labels.

I've always liked using rocks as labels. Find a big flat rock get a stencil and some black paint and you're set.

Got any photos of the rock-labels? It sounds like a great idea.

I was also thinking you could uses coins and drill a hole in them to hang them. Then use the year on the coin for the year of the culm.
