No, I didn't take any cuttings, thought about it but never got around to it! The Coleus that was in the ground is pretty much dead from all the cold but I just wove my way through all the plants crammed into the porch and some that's in that pot with the philo is still alive so maybe it won't all succumb to the cold.

This is what the Schefflera tree looked like this morning! We've had three consecutive nights at 28º, and more cold nights to come so a lot of plants are going to be mush. This Scheff is taller than the house and in the past when we have had a freeze it ended up with brown mushy leaves hanging all the way to the ground.
