I definitely wouldn't do seeds -- do cuttings.  Coleus are really easy to
root.  Just cut off some stems, strip off the lower leaves, dip it in 
rooting hormone, and stick in a peat/perlite mix.  Mist daily and you'll
have new plants!  They'd make great houseplants too.

Just watch out for scale -- keep an insecticide handy!
