Nice coleus finds. I haven't seen but the same five or six varieties over and over at local garden shops. Lowe's had a few larger containers of different varieties (one was the Electric lime green shown above) with higher prices, but I like the four inch pots so I can stick them in my containers. One local nursery had some different varieties but they all looked to have a white film on them (mold), so I stayed clear. Usually coleus are the first plants I see in the annuals each year at the garden centers. Luckily many of mine didn't freeze and I saved lots of cuttings.

By the way I have Picasa, and when I got my new computer I had to have my Geek son come and install Free Picasa again, I know he had to do some kind of fancy finagling to get it again. That was around January. But thanks for the advice, I love Picasa.



New larger pot I got at Lowe's, no idea what name is
