Cardoon, Ptilotus and Coleus

Thank you Homebird. Nearly bloomless as the angelina disappears, but the ptilotus has budded up.

Those coleus are a gorgeous colour

I have these growing in a number of places, but all the eastern cooler areas have this sharp chartreuse. Others are the standard green and red. I've enjoyed it here with the silver of the cardoon and all the other greens. Thank you Grandmage.

Nice combination Greenthumb. You can take cuttings from your coleus. I did it with mine and had an 80 percent growing success. I have placed them indoors for the winter in the conservatory.

Thank you. That reminds me to get some cuttings done! Preserve the collection i acquired this year. I've kept coleus very well through the winter in the past. I've had the poorest success with types like this, broad leafed. We'll see, I've a lovely Mariposa on the porch.

Good luck Greenthumbgreenfingers!!!!!! Say that with a mouthful.........Perhaps not!!!!!!

lol! :-) Greenthumb here is greenfingers there, so either or. That was a mouthful. :-) Thank you. I think they'll do well.
