When I first started collecting Daylilies I used the markers (most were made from blinds) that came with the cultivar. But then the addiction began and needed a better way to keep up with the Daylilies. When I buy a cultivar now I go to the AHS or NGA websites to get the registration Information and picture. All the information is added to an Excel spreadsheet and to notes on my iPad, then I use Kincards garden stakes and make the name tag including the hybridizer and year of registration. After planting record the location in the spreadsheet mentioned above. This works pretty well for me. I also add a column for each year to record the date the cultivar first bloomed that year or if it was new to the garden. Have been doing this since 2010. I keep the printout of the registration information in a binder. The reason the info is kept on my iPad Is so when shopping for more cultivars can look at what I already have. Have purchased some duplicates.:whistling:
