rather than attaching it to the tree, bury it in the mulch/soil at
the base of the tree - that way, when the deer eat or mangle the
original, a windstorm blows it away, or the neighborhood wags steal
'em - or switch them around, you've still got a 'backup' way of
recalling the ID. Choose a consistent spot - like the North or South
side of the tree to bury the backup label.
An orchard map - with multiple copies maintained in separate
locations - is a good idea, too.
