Solenostemon scutterleroides, Coleus, Lamiaceae

Genus and species: Solenostemon scutterleroides
Common Name: Coleus

A very unique plant and one of a kind. It easy to identify in the landscape. The foliage is wildy variable in color, and the plant is easy to propagate; Take a cutting and place it in a cup of water under a light and watch it grow!
