| Last year I was a little disappointed in the varieties and quantities of Coleus in the usual nurseries I go to. I picked a few up at Chadwicks plant sale and a few of the very popular varieties at Oaklands. I see such wonderful varieties in catalogs and online but would like to not have to pay shipping and be able pick them out in person. ANyone know of a nursery in the area that stocks a decent amount and variety of coleus? Thanks! Lyn |

| Baker's Acres in Alexandria - between Columbus and Newark. It is sheer Coleus heaven and one of their specialties. |

| It's a bit of a drive, but it is really, really worth it. Table after table of coleus -- I didn't know there were that many varieties! |

| You guys have totally sold me. We've only lived in Columbus for about 2-3 years so we're still finding all the good spots. So far we haven't loved any one nursery although Oakland downtown has probably the best selection, but its quite a drive for us in Powell. I checked out the webpage for Bakers Acres and I cannot believe the coleus list that they are selling this year. I am jumping out of my skin excited. Any idea when they will have their annual stock in? I think last frost is around May 9 but I'd like to start planting a week or so before that (I just refuse to wait like I'm supposed to!). Thanks again! I really didn't think anyone was going to have an answer for me besides ordering online. - Lyn |
