Yes, I did enjoy this video immensely. I love your mega coleus containers. They are beautiful. My problem is I can't bring myself to clip and trim the leaves. I know you must but it's not that easy for me. I'm going to make more of an effort to keep up with the trimming. All yours look great!!!!!
LOL Every time I see a trimming video I run out and trim. Yes its hard to trim perfectly good stems, but i take every single stem and stick it somewhere else. 9 out 10 times I get another plant.
Trimming is important! First year of Colues down, they didnt die off in the winter here in Florida, lost most of them this summer! Since first year with them I let them go in variety of stages. many in ground, many left in pots, some I trimmed, some I just let run wild. Have a massive one in the corner of the house that gets enough shade its just massive after a year but the rain really beats on it with no gutters, its stems are all twisted. Colues while delicate are very sturdy too and comes back after being beaten up. I lost a bunch in the ground the sun just became too much and we had weeks of drought, but keeping them trimmed helped some. Love the videos!
@zer0saves This is a wonderful comment...Florida is the HQ it seems for Coleus Trials...and You seem to cover all of the different things that A person can do while growing them. Being in a Frost free zone Your Coleus are in their natural PERENNIAL State too.

Start new plants with the trimmed off foliage
@rollingthunder4599 OH I have plenty of Rootings... I mix it up but like most Coleus growers I throw away many stems I no longer need.
Yes! I just managed to get 2 new plants from just leaves, no stems!
Absolutely!
