Adding to Robertas comments:
- Poor eye sight
- Less than perfect handwriting
- Unfamiliarity with less than common names/varieties/clonal names
- A desire to have only personalized labels in the plants (thus re-writing everything).
Having rented greenhouse space from a lady with all of the above, I have seen my share of labels with 'innovative' information.
