Hello Sacha, do you remember the full name of that Plectranthus I
bought from yours, the one you and Ray call the BO plant. It has blue
flowers. Hoping ...

It's Coleus canina and it reeks! In warmer climates it's used to keep
dogs and cats off gardens and apparently it does work. It was given to
Ray as a Plectranthus from a friend with a holiday house in South
Africa but Coleus it is. Good luck with that, or are you moving house
to be shot of it?!

Thanks, Chris. I can confirm that it does root quite readily *and*
seems to deter cats. I must test it on dogs.
