I have a small herb garden just outside my kitchen window, and sometimes I ask my husband to grab something for me, but he doesn’t know what anything looks like except chives and parsley. I wanted to put markers in the garden so that he would know what everything is, but I have found that most herb markers are way too short, and generally too small, especially since my herbs grow exceedingly well in this spot.
I went on Etsy to see if I could find some “large print edition” markers, and I did! They are really, really cute.
The vendor that I bought them from allows you to choose the three that you want for your set–I ordered 3 sets with rosemary, basil, oregano, parsley, sage, thyme, dill, chives, and marjoram. They are made out of thick material, so I think that they will hold up well.
The next thing that I bought was plant clips for keeping my tomato and cucumber plants from trailing all over the ground. I bought them from Amazon. They are so much easier to use than 2 sided velcro, or the foam/rubber covered wire that I think that I will actually be able to keep up with them.
Lastly, I bought some wire panels for my cucumber plants to grow on. I need to make a BUNCH of pickles this year, so I am growing 12 pickling cucumber plants. If you have ever grown pickling cucumbers, you know that 12 will produce an absolute ton of cucumbers. I think that these panels are just what I need.
What garden stuff have you bought that you just love?

Those are good additions.
