Coleus anyone?
I had them growing outdoors this summer and they were great. I made cuttings
and repotted them into smaller pots. Problem is, even inside they grow fast..and I expect them to be inside till mid april anyway. How can i keep and contain them?Someone said to let them grow flower spikes and that would contain them. Is this true? If it is, than what happens to the plant itself during the next few months? |
Keep cutting them back to keep them from getting leggy. Around February or
March, start some new cuttings. In my experience, the plants get pretty tired looking after a couple of years, so cuttings are the way to go. "Wishy13764" wrote in message ...
