Three different Lamiaceae members, native to South Africa.

  1. Tetradenia riparia : I find this one very easy to root in water. I'll move these to soil tomorrow. Lovely scented foliage. You get separate male and female plants with this species, these are males.

  2. Coleus grandidentatus : This species is quite new to me. I have some builders stomping around in my garden currently, fortunately I took some cuttings before they trampled it further. Another rooted cutting moved to soil just now, and although this one has rooted I'm going to give it another week. I bought it mostly for the scented foliage, but it is a nice texture.

  3. Leonotis leonurus : An experiment, it isn't going particularly well. Tossed several other cuttings already that didn't make it. Not sure if it actually can grow from cuttings, but thought I'd give it a bash. Not a train smash as I have two plants in my garden (in flower at the moment)
