Well I have enjoyed watching all the pots this year, I only have two little pots this year from clipping from a friend. My local nursery did not order any this year and Lowes and HD did not have any this yr, I wonder what happened,

The crazy thing is.....I was at Lowes last night they have a bunch of big pots of 3 different kinds of coleus in planters they are using as Fall planter display for sale. When did coleus become Fall planter material? One chilly night and they are toast.

Here is one.

Mine still looked good yesterday so I brought them in to take the cuttings. We have gone down to 40s high 30s at night and they came through no problem.
