I didn't save as much Coleus as I usually do because I found mealybugs on some of them. But I did get through winter with some interesting specimens.

This sad stem didn't look like much until it got in the ground and is now planning an explosion of new growth.

The red Coleus in this pot started as a little sprig with just a few leaves. Over the course of winter, it kept leaning farther and farther, until it was dangling. Now it looks really great and gives me ideas about Coleus as a dangling plant. There are leaning/dangling cultivars, but this is an upright type.
