Someone posted about using salt and pepper shakers from dollar tree as propagation tubes which I thought was a cool idea. I was cleaning out my pantry and about to throw away old spices when I thought of that post. I decided to use the spice containers as propagation tubes! Trying to prorate Coleus from my garden.
