That is a lovely remembrance of your Mom, Janet! Keep them growing!
I had an elephant ear plant for a good 30 years. Jessie was jealous of it when she was little because I was always telling her not to touch it! There was a good 3 foot piece of it in the corner of the living room, that she "accidentally" broke off!
I was going to move the 3 or 4 plants that I loved, but as the movers were packing the moving van, I realized they wouldn't make it. I hope somebody else is taking care of them!
I have 3 coleus plants that I brought inside for the winter, and one potted mint now. That's enough for inside since I am surrounded by growing things outside.
My mother had coleus, and I love the colors.
