I'd be interested to see how the magic marker holds up through the summer sun.
I have been using cut up blind either mini or other and they work great. I
had to experiment with different kinds of markers until I could find one
that lasted well. It seems that I have to remark my labels every other year
or so. So in the spring when I clean up my beds I remark my labels. I found
that the thicker blind (the older ones) hold up better. The newer thin ones
seem to deteriorate after a year or so. I buy mine at the goodwill bargain
barn. This is where all the junk that the goodwill doesn't want to put in
it's stores is put. Heaps of stuff for cheap.
