Plant/Flower & Shrub Tags

Just curious...........When you buy a plant,flower or shrub do you keep the tag with all the information on it?

I always Keep them as i don,t like chucking things away :eek:

 

I do so that I know what they are. I'm that clueless. :D

Ant.

 

I actually photocopy my seed packets and encapsilate them so that I can use them as markers for my seed trays or where I have sown the seed in the garden so I know what I have sown and in which tray or spot. Means that they are protected from the wet and can go outdoors without snails or slugs eating them too. Thus leaves the original packet for reference.

 

What a cracking idea,Thank you Moyra:thumb: :thumb:

 

The wise thing to do, is keep them with the plant. That way, you can becertain of what plants you have.

 

? you have bamboozled me David ????

 

I bought the incapsilator for my son who takes photographs of all his major catches (fish) and he wanted a record of them that he could keep with him and show his fishermen friends without the photo's getting ruined. Well since the incapsilator is there and unused a lot of the time I figured it would be a good idea to copy the seed packets or plant labels etc that you want to protect from all weathers and as I say slugs and snails. This way David you can keep them with the plant without them disintegrating!

 

I put them in front of the plant so I know what I am trying not to kill!!!

 

LOL ............ you're not that bad surely, mztrouble?

 

In which way have I bamboozled you Slinky.:eek::D

 

I,m not after the wise thing to do,just what the individual does? David what do you do with the tags?

No offence and kind reguards Slinky:o

 

Keep them with the plants.:rolleyes: If they are tie on leave them on the plant. If they are not, stick them in the ground.:D

 

Thank you kind sir, i do miss the good looking chap on your avatar:thumb:

 

Slinky, and what may I ask, is wrong with my Angels Fishing Rod?:D

 

I have a shed full of tags, pushed into every crack in the boards.

I tend to find most tags have such little real info on them that it can become a joke as to why they bother putting them on.

Things such as "Mixed succulents". "House plant".

Bought a small oleander today, the tag said it could be anything from white to deep pink, can be single or double, not a lot of help.
The Dutch, are very confusing, hence the term "Double Dutch" I suppose.:D
