Then I discovered these:
These that say "Sharpie Industrial Super Permanant Ink" work much better. The writing stays on the labels and at the end of the season I can still see what I've written. I live near a small town and wasn't able to find them locally. I had to order them from Officemax or Office Depot.
For marking plants that I've started in the house, I use plastic labels. Many people talk about using used window blinds for plant labels. The plastic can be cut to a label size. This is an excellent idea for recycling.
Out in the garden, I find that small labels get lost, so I use these 12 inch wood labels. I couldn't find these in a small quanity, so had to buy a box of 250 from Gemplers. I have placed smaller quanities of these labels on Ebay, but I love the labels so much, that it would not bother me if the ones I have left don't sell. They will eventually get used.

Let me know when you need more of these Sharpies. I can buy them and send them to you. :)
