Me too - on the shopping list!

I have a lot of wild Plectranthus fosteri ‘Marginatus' growing in the front yard. It's blooming now, also. If you like this plant I may be able to get you seed. I know it's popped up from seeds before, however, I've never harvested the seeds.

That's a kind offer, but I have a thing against variegated foliage!!!

Oh yes, I forgot you're one of those variegated foliage haters! lol! :>)

There's actually some full green sports from the variegated plant. Sometimes variegated plants revert back to the green form for unknown reasons.

Makes me seem terribly ungrateful!

Meanie:

No, it doesn't make you seem ungrateful at all! Everyone has their likes and dislikes, it's just human nature. :>)

I do seem to have a lot of dislikes!

From the comments you've made, it doesn't appear that way.

Far more telling are the comments that I don't make!!!

I took a look, it appears to be a Plectrathus hybrid.
