Got to talking about plants while getting my hair done (heck I talk about plants at the post office, doctor office...:)
Anyway, she was interested in finding a source for coleus. My catalogs only give collection selections and she would like to have more choice of what to grow.
Any suggestions? Will also post in annuals.

Avant Gardens www.avantgardensne.com has many, MANY different and new Coleous. Close to 50 different cultivars, many of the new ones this season. I got so caught up looking at them that my short list grew to over 20....was thinking to get 2 or 3 Coleous for my new foliage bed. I would have needed a seperate bed for that many..LOL :)

Let us know which ones you get..:)
Happy looking ~ Jamie

Somewhere here I found http://www.hilltop-gardens.com/coleus.html
Their 2 1/2 inch pots of over 55 coleus get cheaper the more you order.
They will get my order in a few. Sidney
