Looking I got this on Valentines day from Laurie
AMAZING! What lovely friends you have - I'm sure you deserve it!
Kenton surprised me one day in the mail came the prettiest Miniature hand painted and signed by Kenton :))
I have planted Baby Moonbeam in it which has buds !
Thank you Kay . I am very spoiled :))
Hope all those leaves make it so you can keep on sharing your babies!!
I think the one you asked what it was that smelled good is Cuban Oregano, it's a plectranthus but I've seen it labeled as a coleus too.
I have seen many things called Cuban Oregano. This is one I bought at Papa Geno's herb farm. I'll have to see if they have a genus/sp for it.
Just the most prettiest hand painted pot ! Don't you think ?
I just love that pot Kenton painted!!!
Yea, they just call it plectranthus cv.

I was going to ask you what plectranthus is ?
Oh yes all the leaves and plants look so healthy. I took pictures but lost them somehow so will take more :))My helper is always with me of course :))
I love this pot ! Moonbeam as us soill have flowers soon !
Plectranthus is in the mint family technically speaking. roots easily and some smell good too. The flowers are great!
I don't find that they spread or are invasive the way mint is thought. And the foliage on them is wonderful.
Here's a shot of some that I took cuttings of and put in the cloning machine.
this is one of the more common, p. australis (aka Creeping Charlie, house plant)
After a hair cut
Charlies go into the cloning machine (with VF-11 and hydrogen peroxide)
Charlies 12 days later
They grow fast! and root fast as you can see. (and yes, I have plenty if anyone wants to add it to their trades with me later on)
Here are some after I potted them up (and given some away already)
last one, I promise not to bogart your thread Ali (LOL)
Oh no please poet away neat plants you sent me wow :)) Thanks much !
