To hell with that mouse grave comment. I have been in the garden over thirty
years and have heard it all that time. Mark your plants anyway you please. If someone has to come up with a diminishing remark, he has envy. Every
time someone starts a label thread it ends up with 100 messages and no
consensus so whatever you do that works for you is OK.


I've heard the mouse grave comment before - mostly as intros to slide show showing the garden covered in snow. I've tried mapping - doesn't work for me, I like to move things too much! Plant and label move in a pot, so the mix ups are fewer!

BTW - how do you label, I am moving over to all See Fine style markers on the daylilies, with what ever happens to be handy for the rest.


I'd better get some sleep now, I have to be up early to water!
