Pic #4 are Coleum. We start them from seed and plant them outside for summer colour.
I think #5 is a Croton "Hookerianum".
Congratulations on your find, may they all grow and prosper for you.

The first plant posted looks like a variety of houttuynia. I've had the 'Chameleon' cultivar, and it spreads pretty aggressively.

Oh my goodness I'm so green with envy what has this world come to that there are 99 cent plants that I can't get my hands on! What a cruel world. Enjoy the plants enough for me.

very nice finds. We have a few differant .99 stores around our area. But so far none of them have plants out and not sure if they have ever gotten plants in. Usually they'll have garden items but that about it as far as outdoor things.
