very nice selection!!... my ocd makes me pinch off the flowers even though they do just keep coming most of the time.. will usually stop that in sept and just let them go.. and don't bother taking cuttings off those coleus.. usually means the cuttings will flower shortly and won't last the winter .. I think they take away from the look as well... the colors are usually off compared to the foliage .. seems if I pinch them often & early enough they won't set flowers.. or at least in prior years it does seem to help.. this year with my bum ankle.. they are a bunch out there flowering now Thumbs down just have to ignore them
