OMG if you pinch back the coleus like basil, it will be so nice and bushy

Awesome thank you

I don’t know what your climate is like, but the green watering can that has begonia and the coleus that’s shade.

The lambs ear \& Petunia in the peach colored watering can is sun. 😁

Tip 1: Let the top inch or two dry out before you water :)

Tip 2: Some plants can’t take direct sunlight. Check if it applies to yours :)

Tip 3: Fertilize! :)
