Since garden markers sometime get moved or lost, I try to put a plastic label (a section of window blind, labelled with Sharpie Industrial Marker) in the hole when I'm planting. This is especially good for perennials I know I'll want to dig/divide/share in the future -- when I dig it up and find the tag, I'll know exactly what it is, regardless of what happened to its official garden marker.
