When I plant, I take pics to remind me of where they were planted. I can see the names since sellers will print the names on the leaves. I should mark them but my markers are nearly all gone.
I also have a program called PlantStep Flower Software which I use mostly for all the daylilies I have but there is other sections in the program for Iris, Liliium, Roses, Hostas. I log in what I bought, who I got it from, stats and then add a pic of each - for my reference - of what the Iris will look like so when they bloom I'll have something to compare to. Nothing worse than buying a certain color and a different color blooms.
You can make some adjustments for soil differences but when a red turns out blue or yellow, then you know, you got the wrong one.
