G'Morning Folks and fellow Texans :-)

I have a big variety of coleus (my newest addiction, thank you very much) that I will be happy to make cuttings of. A sample of them is posted in this photo. I asked for ID's on the coleus forum and got a few more answers, but there was only so much room on the collage I was making.

I have a lot of plants shown in my journal/diary (never can remember which I have). Not necessarily the full names, but there are photos of each section of my yard. You all are welcome to tour the yard and I"ll be happy to make cuttings for any one that would like them. I will bring a variety anyway, hoping they will go to good homes, but if there is anything specific you'd like, just let me know.

I'm going through the lists you all have provided, above this post. It sounds like I'm rather greedy here, I know. Had I seen this earlier and made the requests all along, it wouldn't sound quite so bad. Keeping that in mind....

Lady Banksia (white) roses
Turks Cap
