This would be another idea that I'm interested in. Not necessarily for garden visitors, but at least I coud do the label making with the P-touch aparatus. Don't know about moving labels for winter(?) That would likely save wear & tear on them. I know that I have some out there right now that are unidentified, but most of them I recognize and know pretty much where they are.

Mine are "put out" in the spring (quite a job, too, with this many cultivars Sticking tongue out ), and taken in after bloom is done( the Re's remain marked until fall, and then get 'pulled" ), as leaving them in place...year around...makes weeding, cutting fans, etc., very difficult, and, if left in place over the winter, makes the beds look too much like "cemeteries" !

Seems very logical.
