Good evening everyone! I am new to gardening and taking care of plants and I am wanting to know how I can propagate my coleus!?

Search YouTube videos and online articles. There are many with detailed steps. Coleus can be propagated from stem cuttings, leaf cuttings and seeds.

I take stem cuttings and just place in water. These are really easy to propagate.

For some reason my cutting isn’t rooting. I took a cutting from my coleus and put it in water and the bottom of the root is slowly turning brown. It’s only been in there for not even a week.
