shortly Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Coleus blumei is a permitted species so as long as its clean seed it shouldn't be an issue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambient Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 Coleus blumei is a permitted species so as long as its clean seed it shouldn't be an issue Cool, I wasn't aware of that, I might be able to broaden my search a little.I keep finding pics of the one I'm after, which gives me hope there is some available out there somewhere... Just gotta keep looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) What type are the Bunnings plants and seeds? I always thought they weren't blumei, but I'm not sure. I have sprouted both solid and mixed leaf colour plants from a pack of their seed, and looking at the above photos and google images they appear to be identical. But i am no botanist.

Ambient Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Hi Alice, sorry for the very very very slow reply, I must have missed your post and haven't been online in a long while. I think the Bunnings ones are blumei, I managed to find a "versa lime" mid last year from bunnings which is quite nice. I'm still on the look out for the "green giant" though and wishing I had paid more attention to your last post. If you still have the one that you thought was the same let me know, I'm sure I can find something to trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
