Save With Utensils

Old spatulas and spoons make great plant markers. I find them at rummage sales and discount stores for less than 25¢ each.

Use a fine-tip permanent marker to write the plant name on the front of the utensil and the planting date on the back. If you want to reuse them the next season, use a scrubbing pad to remove the writing. —Linda Ramsey, Chelsea, Oklahoma
