Yipee Ruby, I remember your swap request and would love to pass some of my favorites along to you and John.
I have a trailer that would do well as a hanging basket plant in an East facing window where it stays above 50 degrees. Keep it alive and you can get lots of cuttings come warmer weather.

I'd send it trimmed back (some arms are over 4' !} with most soil removed (weight) if you have a pot and soil for its new home ( 8")

Only limiting factor time wise is the temperatures as coleus are tropical plants after all. We should be good for another few weeks...as they should only take 2-3 days to arrive almost anywhere in US or Canada.

So send those addresses for these old fashioned passalong plants!

Don't we all remember the ones from our Grandmas and aunts houses? I do.
