The first end includes a bent portion and has a forked end with parallel top and bottom prong members. The hang tag and marker are removably secured to each other and to the prong members. The hang tag may be made from plastic and provides information regarding a particular type of plant. The marker also identifies the plant and is made from a weather resistant material. The marker may be generally oval-shaped with an elongated member extending downwardly from the bottom thereof. The stake with the hang tag and marker secured thereto may be placed in a potted plant.
