These are two cuttings from the same Lava Rose coleus. The one on the left is the coloration on the entire plant, and many others like it, except for one stem which had the coloration on the right. I potted that stem up. If the color holds true, this could be considered a sport of the mother plant. It would take several generations with consistent results to get a better idea. They have been grown under identical conditions.
