Easy Coleus Propagation 

Perfect timing, just got some cuttings of my coleus today. Thanks

Good substitute and I'll be doing this on my garden. We're getting storms nearly every day, just a few hours west of you.

Coleus to the rescue. Yes its so easy to propagate. Every year I plant some in my garden, and I take cutting to bring indoors for house plants. My mom wasn't a gardner but always had coleus plants. I plant them in memory of her.

You can root directly in the soil in the shade.. They will root quicker than in water.. I do it all the time.

Instead of coleus, why not do the same with sweet potatoes? Or is this in an area with high deer browse?

Will coleus grow in shade of do they need some sun?
