Variegated Plectranthus Plant

I bought extra plants because they were in such small pots and I guessed they would be small plants. They are larger and more healthy plants than some of the 4” pots I ordered this year. I am so pleased that I just placed another, larger order. Excellent!!

One stem only

This plant consisted of one broken stem and am hoping it might grow.

GrowJoy: Linda, give us a call, we'll send you a replacement.
