coleus

I've moved this plant outside. Most people seem to grow it in yards anyways, although I doubt it would survive the winter here. But it likes strong light and I've run out of space on my windowsills. It's already getting stronger color from being out there two days, though I worry it could catch an infestation of whitefly or spider mites from the other balcony plants...

I've got cuttings of it in a windowsill jar in the kitchen; if it does get a bad case of bugs, I can always just start over with the cuttings.
