Janet,

I was on the Coleus forum asking for id's on 2 different Coleus, and besides you helping me on one of them, I didn't get much help.

But, thanks for the invitation the that forum. I'll check into it again soon.

Your colection of Coleus looks great and colorful!

Yes, it does take me hours to water all my container plants and I haven't shown all the containers of flowers/coleus yet. I'm getting to the point with all the high heat and dryness, that if I can't water them, then they'll won't get watered. :-( And, I have flowerbed too that need water, besides the containers.

Here's a container that I photographed on July 16 of just 'Wizard Mix' Coleus. It gets morning sun and afternoon shade. I took the photo at 7:51 am.

Thanks for the nice words about the hillside front yard!

Marilyn
