Barbalee - Here is the cheap and quick way that I make garden labels and they have held up quite well for me for at least 2+ years. I also put a blue paint dot (for dips) and a green paint dot (for tets) on the handle of each knife that is sticking up out of the ground so that I know if a cultivar is a dip or tet when hybridizing. These markers aren't that visible either, so you mainly just see the plants.
