Description

The listing, VICK'S PLANT SUCCULENT-Plectranthus tomentosa - 4 CUTTINGS has ended.

Winner gets at least 4 vibrant cuttings from my VICKS PLANT. This plant has a wonderful scent of Vick's plant and require little care.
I will not take the cuttings until the end of the auction so I can get them to you as fresh as possible.
This is a very hearty species and tolerant to cold temps. If the temps at your end or my end are extreme it might be necessary to hold the plant until it is more climate. If this is a problem please do not bid.
Be sure to ask questions before bidding. All Listia rules apply. I cannot be responsible for plants once they are out of my hands.
HAPPY GROUNDHOGS DAY!

Googled this for info: richters.com--Vicks plant (Plectranthus purpuratus) is a hardy house plant. It will be happy in pots, hanging baskets, or summer containers outdoors. It is closely related to swedish ivy, and more distantly related to coleus.
As the name suggests, it has a strong odour similar to that of "Vick’s Vapor Rub", a common over-the-counter liniment that is rubbed on to the chest to help ease congestion and break chest colds. In fact, the vicks plant can be used for the same purpose. The leaves can be steeped in boiling water to vaporize the characteristic oils which are then inhaled, helping to clear nasal and respiratory passages. The leaves can also be applied as a poultice, or prepared in petroleum jelly-based ointments. Vasoline petroleum jelly works well.
Hmmmm,,,,,a little confused! Groundhog Day? Are we jumping the gun a little??? Otherwise great auction!!!!

Did you ever get anything from Rusty Cochran back in Listia's early days? I got this from him. The scent is intoxicating!

He is a great home grower in TN. Really a smart guy that taught me much about growing succulents!

have to ask how do you ship this without the plant dying. in the past i shipped a plant to my sister and it was dead when it arrived.

Jan 27th, 2021 at 3:09:58 AM PST by

I do a couple of things to help the plant arrive in good condition. I very carefully wrap the plants.
I invite you to check my other feedback. Everything will arrive healthy and ready to go! I hope this helped!
