These things are growing like crazy. Silly me, I put 2 per container. Looks like I need to re-pot to one per container. I'm amazed at how good they look.

A few years ago a friend gave me some which I put in a very large pot with petunias and some other plants. Now I plant them every year with petunias and other flowers on the porch.

I’ve always admired a Coleus plant that mom has on her patio every year so last fall she gave us a cutting to get started in the window. What I didn’t realize was that her plants over the years have come from her sister’s plant that passed away almost 30 years ago. Kinda of neat to have a piece of the family history taking root in our kitchen window…..

I love a coleus! Tried to shape one like a Christmas tree one year, came darn close too. An unexpected frost snapped that project…🤷🏻♀️ Sister (Florida one)had some in a 5” pot that were as large as my tree attempt in 5 months…mine was 2 yrs old.

Mumsey, re: Coleus and the price of seeds. If you get an early start, can you take cuttings and root in water?
