Hi Virginia, It's a year later and I don't know if you'll even see this comment, but

A couple years ago I accidentally broke a plant and I was so scared I shoved it into the pot. It got a little wilted but then perked up and in a few weeks was just like the original plants. 😂

My mother loved growing this plant she potted them beautifully.

I really fell in love with the Coleus when I realized that all kinds of different pollinators love their flowers! They are wonderful plants :)

I’m in love with Coleus honestly I just found your video most interesting specially about collecting seeds 🙂 thumbs up 👍🏻 ❤️

They are so pretty! I love growing coleus. They are really easy too! Thanks for watching!

I discovered coleus for the first time last summer. I was fortunate to run into a sale at Walmart and loved watching it grow and it was so healthy. Anyways I bought some seeds and am giving them a try, maybe I'll have coleus to put out on my patio....

Thank you. I love that you fast forward. This makes your videos complete. I only need your video. Great job!

I had no idea you could save the seeds! I can’t wait to try this end of season

This is my first year growing coleus from seed. I didn't know you could propagate so that was helpful to see. I also liked seeing the progress updates too. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for taking time to film this!

Just found your channel, very interesting. Started growing coleus this summer with 4 plants. Definitely will be growing more but our Scottish weather will ruin them so will overwinter in the greenhouse. How have I missed this plant, I love them. Cheers 👍

Thank you for sharing your knowledge in a very down to earth way.

Happy planting, beautiful plants, thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Very informative, thank you. I just picked up some of these and I'm so excited to watch them grow!

This was an awesome video I just started growing coleus myself and I realized I planted wayyy too many and now I feel bad I won't want to kill any but they are starting to show signs of problems on top of we just had a huge storm with hail and it tore up a bunch of foliage and wrecked my soil. Your video helped save my babies! Thank you again 🙏

Love these plants!!!! Creating hybrids is so much fun!!!

Appreciate your time to share knowledge to others 😊😊. Ur video helped me

Nice CUTCO shears, I know that it is natural for the smaller plants to be coming up underneath the larger ones so that was a good idea of the seeds getting planted in your crowded pot. For protection of your babies.

I gave my daughter a black dragon that only grew for her. It was almost two when she left for college and I killed it in record time. She didn't take it because she feared the move would damage it so she took a slip and left me the plant. 😒

I’ve had part of my coleus plant break off and I’ve just plucked it back in the soil and it’s grown for me 😁

Thank you so much for sharing, and all of your plants are GORGEOUS!! I brought my mom's two Coleus plants home to save because rhey got SO leggy that were hanging all over the place like octopus arms lol!! I'm happy you showed how to propagate them!! was able to propagate most of them except for a few branches that were to far gone to save!! I have them in water and they're starting to root YAY!! Hopefully they'll recover!! I'm also gappy you showed how to harvest them from seed!!❤😊🙏🙏

Going to find some envelopes to save the seeds. This my first year growing them successfully because I didn't know how easy they were to grow. I have a bright red and a bright yellow kind.

Do you have a link for the envelopes?

Yes, Coleus are lovely foliage plants. From seed, they can be a little trying. The seeds are extremely small, and the young plants are very vulnerable. Watering can be troubling. Start them in peat moss. Planting soil is a little brutal and they can become somewhat lost, especially when watering. If container gardening, place a funnel in the soil so-as not to disturb the emerging little guy's. It works well. "Pinching", or pruning will fill-out the plants so they do not become too lanky. Bright - indirect light, and enough of it will make both you and your Coleus happy.

When you plant multiple varieties in the yard will the seeds produce plants that are true to the mother plant, or have they been cross-pollinated and could produce some new or different varieties?

Can you to talk about the kind of soil you used in this video

I strip the cups off the stem and use a fine sieve that only the tiny seeds will fall thru and then rub the cups and the seeds easily fall thru. I make wax paper seed holders and use stapler on dbl. folded sides, so seeds don't fall thru. Then I store in the fridg. Yours is much prettier. Mine is just cheap.🤣 great job on video.
