Mise au jeu - Operation Coleus Cloning

7 Time subject to change.
Mise au jeu’s Mains tendues project gets citizens to participate in saving coleuses in order to beautify their gardens and home interiors. Just like some homeless people, these plants are often abandoned. They suffer from the cold and eventually die, in our gardens. Downtown residents and institutions have donated their plants for an unusual cloning experiment. Coleus cuttings in recycled pots are available at the État d’Urgence site, an act of resilience by the Mains tendues team.
