I bought this gorgeous coleus plant in August and she’s doing so well (I think)! I’ve noticed that there’s a stem that’s very dry and looks dead, but I’m not sure what to do about it /: there’s also a very long stem that’s doesn’t really flower as much as the others. It’s very long and has such tiny leaves. Should I do anything about these things or just let her rock??
The stem that is very dry and looks dead is potential root or stem rot.

Trim the dead bits. You can trim and propagate the skinny green stems in water or soil. Give it more hours of sunlight or add a grow light to bring out the darker colors and to boost the growth. Fertilize once a month with diluted fertilizer if it’s still growing in winter. 🪴🍀
