They still
rust in the ground but it takes several years to rust through.

I use the zinc plates that go on wire legs and then I use laser printer clear
address labels on the plates. I buy mine from Eon Industries in Ohio--they
are much cheaper bought from a supplier like Eon than in a garden shop.

Yes, the legs do rust over time. I've had the labels last four years so far.
These do have the disadvantage of being very obtrusive and if the tractor
catches on on the edge of the bed it's a goner.
