Coleus Cuttings to Overwinter: Part 1 🍂🪴❄️
We are going through the first steps to overwinter my coleus plants. I live in zone 6 so the coleus will not last a major frost. I'd like to save and multiply my collection.

I love coleus. Always been an admirer and this is my first year buying and growing them
The baby was the cutest in the garden 😊💕
I just love the admission of the neglect idea when trying to do it all at one time. I get that idea and I have decided to write down a schedule for the fall cleanup of the garden so it is easier, and manageable, to accomplish.
I am mesmerized by these coleus wow
Wow, just came across your video! I love your display and all your different types of coleus. I never thought to save the cutting. My coleus grows back every year from the seeds of the previous season. It seeds everywhere! I love it! But I don’t have proven winners coleus. I just bought some online and will definitely try to save them since they are extra special. Thanks for all the information!!
El Brighto is a must for the color palette you say you like.
What a gorgeous coleus display! I am also a Coleus Collector who overwinters by taking water cuttings. This year one of my favorite new additions is Black Dragon, a new color and shape for me. It grew quite vigorously in the partial shade of my front porch.

Well, I love the name - Black Dragon. I'll have to look that one up. Do you keep them in water all winter? Do you add any nutrients?
Hi Shelly. Fungus gnats indoors? In your soil for cuttings and all your house plant potting soils buy Mosquito Bits and mix one tablespoon for every five cups of soil. It will eliminate all indoor gnats in around 20 days. I was amazed. Amazon has mosquito bits. I’m a coleus crazy gardener. Lovely videos.
This is one of my fav videos on coleus!!
I like the way you talk about them, like introdecing your children. And they seem to respond back. 🙂 I used to have a variety with bright yellowish orange foliage. but, I think if you move them from bright sun to less sunny area, the lose their color and turn green... ish with patches of darker colors,
Only just found you but so inspiring .many thanks this is my first season .and I just love them 💕.
I’m going to try and overwinter mine! I love Color Blaze Cherry Drop… so pretty paired with Supertunia Jazzberry😍
Greetings from Turkey. Your coleuses are truly beautiful.😊

Is a petunia eating petunias cannibalism!? Lol, he's too cute
Thanks for this helpful video! First time growing and trying to overwinter coleus (1st year with a yard to plant so very new to this ). Your coleus arrangement is absolutely stunning, definitely inspires me to be more creative with planting next year. Please consider sharing some of your planting process next year. Would love to learn to create a mini version. 🤞

Should have checked your other videos first haha, glad to see you have made one already. 😊
I always have lime time in my favourite 4 lime pots. It’s matchy matchy and I love the high impact of this never fail coleus. Though this year I may have loved fishnet stockings more so am making a note to switch my lime posts up to fishnet for 2024. I do the coleus reds (Beale st,ridiculous, cherry brandy, & I’ll look for red head) in my landscape pots. I currently have 4 vases of coleus leaf decorative vases at work in my showroom. Fabulous fall bouquets of nothing but leaves.

A fellow Coleus lover 😀. I have never had Cherry Brandy - I will have to check that one out.
I bought 'FlameThrower' and thought it was ok at first. However, it was HUGE and turned out very pretty! I will be overwintering this one for sure. I have one problem to ask you about: I do the same as you but it seems when I take them out of the pot to place in my planters, they will break off at the soil level like they are rotten there. Do you know why?
Loved the vlog. I think the "fishnet stockings" was mislabeled. Last year I grew the one you now have & I know it wasn't called "fishnet stockings". I hope someone can comment on the correct name, as I misplaced the tag. Funny thing....I actually ❤ that variety & overwintered several cuttings. Now I need to know the name😊
There’s a white cuphea and a white with purple tip

I like vermillionaire shape & texture & definitely hummer attractive BUT don't care for the orangy color. I just wonder how well the others do @ attracting hummers?
Roses dawn gardens has a huge selection of coleus
All those seeds just waiting to be harvested.
I just did eco printing using the coleus leaves..

I will also pull in my mexican petunias - but I will dig the plant up, cut it back and bring it inside. I will experiment with some begonias too
They out grew the space for me. Fungus knats were a huge issue.

They have been a huge issue for me too!
what did u say u put them in after water stage??
Heartbreaker is hard to root for me, leaves rot easily.
Some colors are so picky with rooting.
