Sidney, we can't get Bright Ruffles. I wish we could because I love it so! It is only available in plug trays and not unrooted cuttings!

Oh Brinda. Congratulations. Your house is fabulous.

When do you get to move into it.

Oh and I am thrilled with whatever and as many as you decide on.

I can't find an emotion for pout, so this is close

I was looking at the cuttings again and kept picking the ones we already have! I must like them

Does anyone like Silk Sunrise?

Yes, I love it, but I think Apricot is similar.

Thanks for all the congrats on the house. We are thrilled.

I meant to post this link above and goofed. This link has many more pics of the house and you can enlarge them and make it full screen.

Silk Sunset is a strange coleus, I think. I love it and it does much better in more shade than sun for me. It's the one that has always been difficult to root. Out of 10 cuttings I've been lucky enough to maybe get 2 of them to root, which is quite strange as I normally have 100% luck with all the others.

I will add Silk Sunset to the list for us. When rooting, make sure the soil isn't too wet or it will probably die on you.

LOL, I'll just leave my changed order at Starlights cubit too.

I changed some things in my account and could not log back on.

I rebooted and A-OK!

Someone can pick something other than Silk sunrise if it's a tough one to root. I don't know about the mechanics of rooting I just like the way they look in the picture

Pheadra, Melissa, Sidney, Allison, Eskinola??? I think you've all had Silk Sunset before, what are you thoughts on it?

If it's hard to root, find something else.
Meandering Linda is my alternative suggestion.

Let's make Meandering Linda our last choice. I will place order tomorrow...

I am so sorry to take so long to get back in here today. I've had the most wonderful & miserable day all rolled into one. I accomplished lots on my Mom's probate and a little before 2:00 today, I opened the patio door to let the dog out and could not believe my eyes.

Here's my neighbor's house today and I'm exhausted and didn't even fight the fire. They lost everything.
