My wife brought this plant home and can’t remember the name of it. Anyone know what it is?

Some type of sedum?

### send\_nodes commented on 2024-07-08

I think it’s a Coleus amboinicus

looks like coleus neochilus, or lobster flower. the variegated form is known as “mike’s fuzzy wuzzy.” if you rub the leaves it should give off a pungent, herbal and earthy, skunk-y smell.

You are correct! That’s the exact smell lol! Thanks!
