Ceres,

I'm growing 'Paul' this year.  When do you take your cuttings?  Do you put
them in soilless mix right away?  Do they get mildew indoors?  I figure that
they may be similar to coleus when indoors. I have no problem with coleus as
long a I keep the air circulating with a small fan.

Chris, I have.  I overwintered cuttings of 'Paul', the purple one last year.

I plan to take cuttings of 'Paul' & "Caribbean Coral' (orange) this year.
