Plant Badges

Little stickers that tell a plant's story at a glance: how much light it wants, how easy it is, and what makes it special.

Anatomy

Circular plant-trait badges: curved serif lettering top and bottom (mirrored), thin arc brackets, and a line icon in the center. Easy Care is a heart-shaped sticker.
Low Light badge
  1. Circle in a badge color
    Each badge owns its background, so the set reads at a glance.
  2. Curved serif lettering
    The name runs over the top and repeats, mirrored, along the bottom. It's artwork, not a brand font.
  3. Arc brackets
    Thin lines on the left and right frame the icon.
  4. Center line icon
    Simple, single-weight line art.

  • Only claim what is true for that plant (Pet Friendly must be verified non-toxic)
  • Minimum size 0.75 in. in print, 64px on screen
