You could cut out the pictures of the plants from a catalogue - ie. Thompson and Morgan or Mr Fothergills. Stick the pic on a card and then write the name, sun or shade etc on the back.

Hi I have done a card on Geranium Rozanne. I found a picture but not showing leaves very well, you can see one leaf in full view. I have written that it is a Herbaceous perennial, that it likes sun or partial shade and it flowers in spring, anyother bits i need to include that are important?
If you learn that much about each of say 5 or 10 plants to start with you can feel proud of yourself. Then if you find out more about a plant you can add it to the card and learn it as before.
Take your time ... the memory works best at a steady pace so don't try to rush it.

Thank you yes I'll try and do 5 plants a day or every few days with the same basic info. I've looked up Geum totally tangerine on rhs but it doesn't say whether it's herbaceous perennial. What image should I have, one with leaves?
