I use a dymo labeller has two advantages. One everyone can read it as I have doctors writing. Two its easy just to peel the label off at the end and reuse and not have to struggle to remove so called permanent ink.
But must admit I did sow a lot of seed trays once but then forgot what was in each so lesson learnt there label as you go
If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.
I've got a collection of permanent markers - black for labels and white for pots and seed trays - however someone keeps 'borrowing' them at least I know where to find them - in the studio
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
am trying to set a good example to my littlies,we go along to church most sundays,( the biggest one's name is down to go to catholic school so i really have to behave!!)i have given up for lent starbucks and takeout treats as i couldn't stick to giving up wine, coffee or chocolate!! at least i'm managing , although a very kingd friend has twice tried to bring me a coffee ( while we wait at ballet class) and twice she's spilled it in her car before it's got to me!! help from above?!! i never went to confession as i had a veeerry long gap of not attending church, my grandparents took me as my parents didn't go, and until last year i hadn't been since the 1980's! that's my confession!
I suppose I'll have to own up to having bought ANOTHER HOSTA!!! and it's not a thick and chunky one so it'll have to live in a pot - I think I need to buy more pots it's beautiful - it's called June Fever http://www.perennials.com/plants/hosta-june-fever.html

I use 2B pencils to write on white labels, the pencil never comes off, but sometimes I forget to label everything.

When I propergate things and have got some left over I take them into work and sell them to colleagues instead of giving them away.
I keep my permanent marker hidden in the potting shed.
I'm too cheap to buy labels, I cut up ice cream tub lids and use those instead.
It's only because they earn more money than me!
