I had help from the buyer on how to germinate these and how to successfully grow them. I used a plant heating pad, growing trays and a growing light. They are prospering. I hope to be able to plant them in their own pot in a few weeks. They just need more growth. She recommended them to be about 2” to 3” high before I replanted them. This is a fun project. I also raised hypoestes from seeds as well. They are doing just as well.

Okay so Coleus, although beautiful, this plant is the most frail of all my green friends. I’m working on a balance for her , she has been moved several times about for what best for her, still finding it.

My plant was gifted to me and sometime I am really good at watering her and sometimes not. She grew so fast and I was able to propagate 2 babies from her and gave one to another friend and she too is growing strong!

These are pretty when they get all bushy. Otherwise, this one has been a little bit finicky.

I grew these from seed last year and they are doing so well. I just found out that they are poisonous to cats and dogs so be careful.

i basically killed this thing by not giving it any direct light so i propagated it to fill up the pot and now the leaves look so much healthier and the whole plant is thriving in the sunlight now!

This is my first time with this plant and I’ve only had it for about a week and a half so I’ll update more later but I love how strange and beautiful the leaves are. Almost otherworldly. It needs a lot of shade and I keep it inside but a little further back from the window and so far it’s done amazing with that.

If you want a plant that you can propagate and share with your friends, get a coleus! They’re resilient and their bright colors are a stunning addition to your inside garden. I have mine in a tall skinny pot without drainage and she’s exploding! I accidentally broke off two of the stems, stuck them in water, and they’ve already sprouted roots!

Easily propagation from a stem put in water. Avoid keeping near pets as it causes intestinal distress even in proximity to the plant. Toxic if eaten by dogs and cats.

It has beautiful leaves and comes in many varieties, colours and leaf patterns. It is very easy to grow from cuttings, put them into water until they form roots, then pot. It grows very fast as well.

These are clippings from my moms potted coleus. They’re propagating quite nicely, and my mom says the mother plant miraculously survived the AZ sun last summer. Poor plant definitely took a hit, but since they moved it out of direct, all day sunlight, it’s bouncing back!

Coleus is all about the foliage which can vary greatly from bright green to dark burgundy with variegated mixes as well. Snip a stem & drop into a cup of water to propagate.
