ABSTRACT:
A seed carrier and marker includes an elongated peg having an upper end and a lower end, a soil level index between the ends of the peg for indicating a recommended depth to place the peg into soil, a seed, and placement structure for positioning the seed at about a predetermined position a selected distance below the soil level index, the placement structure including a water-degradable film for resisting movement of the seed away from the predetermined position. The water-degradable film is preferably fabricated of a water-soluble polymeric material with an adhesive on one side for adhering to the peg. The positioning structure can include a compartment defined by the lower end of the peg. The peg can be fabricated of a degradable material, such as a bio-degradable material or a photo-degradable polymeric material.
