I never have fertilized but It's spring in the greenhouse, warm air, bottom heat, water. Hilarious! Ozmocote just gives a little every time you water. I was hoping to get another round of cuttings on some of my favs.

You don't over winter coleus any more, right. I say no not going to take cuttings but they are so beautiful in the fall I just hate to see them die.

In fact I dont order many plants for planting anymore.I had a five year plan and filled the spaces here in that time.I divide and plant seeds and do some hole digging for new lilies and other bulbs.

My cuttings are awful this year. I've let them dry out several times, they've lost most of their leaves, I cut them off and start again. Now they're only a few inches tall and almost leafless. Huh. I might have to re-think my front flower bed this year. Too expensive to buy that many at once. Shrug!

Well, they're not dead yet, but they're trying hard to be Hilarious! Hopefully a few will survive despite my negligence. Coleus are tough plants.

That's a nice goup. Will look forward to your pictures when you plant them. That seems like a good buy 38 pounds. Would that be around $76.00 american?

Maybe they made a mistake with the invoice, just BP.35,55 = €42,45 = $ 55,97.
They emailed me because shipping outside UK theyr coleus, they can't guarantee for 30 days.
I have no problem with that, know they shipped before to Sweden several times without any problem.
Despatching April, i will post pics.
