| Some kind of Plectranthus. Maybe P. amboinicus: Cuban Oregano (Coleus amboinicus) What color were the blooms? 👀😁😂 - SMILE! -☺😎☻☮👌✌∞☯🐣🐦🐔🐝🍯🐾 The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The 2nd best time is now. 👒🎄👣🏡🍃🍂🌾🌿🍁❦❧ 🍃🍁🍂🌾🌻🌸🌼🌹🌽❀☀🌺 ☕👓 The only way to succeed is to try. |

| With the height shown in your photo, it might be Indian Coleus (Plectranthus barbatus) which can grow 4 to 8 feet in height. Another photo for comparison can be seen here: https://farm7.staticflickr.com... ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| Boldo (Peumus boldus) is a tree and not the plant in your photo. I do believe your plant is a type of Plectranthus, one of the taller growing varieties. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| It may be known that way regionally. Wiki mentions boldo as a common name for P. barbatus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... 👀😁😂 - SMILE! -☺😎☻☮👌✌∞☯🐣🐦🐔🐝🍯🐾 The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The 2nd best time is now. 👒🎄👣🏡🍃🍂🌾🌿🍁❦❧ 🍃🍁🍂🌾🌻🌸🌼🌹🌽❀☀🌺 ☕👓 The only way to succeed is to try. |

Thanks Tiffany!  That certainly shows how common names of plants can be so confusing because P. boldus and P. barbatus are entirely different. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |
