Should have started a few years ago but I'm a slow learner. I considered GPS, but the coordinates aren't close enough! Of course, reading the tags in a few years may be a challenge and its going to be a bit strenuous to dig up a plant everytime I've forgotten its name. I guess that could be a fulltime job by the time I finally retire.
