New Button

Post by Raj »

It’s that time to add a button to the victoriae-reginae to measure yearly growth. Am I the only one to do this?

Sorry about the image - tried various things without joy.

I do the same, but I use a sticker I attach to the tip of the most recent leave I can find in the center. I can write the year on it before I stick it on, so I know how fast it grows throughout the years. Assuming the sticker stays on and I can still read it after a few years...

But I think your solution is potentially much better!
