    Default Do you use plant markers/stakes?

    Do you use anything to mark what is planted where in your gardens or containers?

    Yes--otherwise I forget what I've planted where....I especially do this when I start plants from seed.

    Yes, I do too. Usually I leave them in the ground until I can remember what is there! We had a bunch of 2 foot wood slats that were in the barn when we moved here and they are perfect for the job!

    Yes, I have several ways,
    1. paint pop-sicle sticks, use perm. marker
    2. DH made me some Heart cut outs tacked to paint stirers. painted, perm.marker to label
    3. Small rocks painted then labeled w/Perm. Marker (look cute there too)
    4. CD's Silver side out paint flowers on, then label w/ perm. marker (best if used behind the plants, so they don't look too gaudy!)*lol*

    Thanks for the ideas you guys! I will have to keep my eyes open for some of these things or other things I can use to mark my plants!

    I only mark mine when they're planted from seeds and usually use popsicle sticks.
