I try to keep a journal, but am not quite organized enough to really be complete on this .
Here is what I do in addition to my haphazard journal, I have a box and zip-lock bags. The biggest (now gallon size which is barely big enough) is for perennials, and the loose ones in the first pic are the ones I haven't filed yet (I file about twice a year or so). I do try to write on the tag the year, and approximate location of plant, this helps a lot. The middle pic is the pile of perennial tags from the gallon bag-there could easily be 250 I think. Of course many of the plants have died. I have a list in my journal (now 4 pages long) titled "Things That Have Died".
p.s. my landscape is also more haphazard than rteets!
