Plectranthus tomentosa

Vicks plant, or Succulent Coleus, is a unique and aromatic herb known for its menthol-like fragrance, reminiscent of Vicks Vaporub. This perennial beauty is a perfect rare and unusual addition to your herb garden, bringing both soothing scents and practical benefits. Vicks herb is an essential addition for home gardeners, prized for its ease of cultivation and ability to thrive with minimal effort.

At The Growers Exchange, we’re passionate about providing high-quality, sustainably grown Vicks plants. Handpicked and carefully nurtured, our plants thrive in your garden, giving you a fresh, fragrant herb that can be enjoyed year-round.


History and Heritage

The Vicks plant, or Plectranthus tomentosa, originates in the warm, tropical climates of Africa and Asia, where it has thrived for centuries. The plant’s name reflects its soft, velvety leaves, with "tomentose" referring to the fine hairs that cover them. 

Historically, it has been cultivated for its soothing, aromatic qualities. Modern enthusiasts often compare it to the menthol scent of Vicks Vaporub, which is how it got its unique name. Its introduction to modern herbal gardens outside of its native regions has brought the plant to new heights of popularity, appreciated by casual gardeners and those interested in its holistic benefits.


Appearance and Characteristics

When touched, vicks plants boast soft, velvety leaves that release a cooling, minty fragrance. Their lush, fuzzy, oval-shaped leaves are thick and succulent, allowing the plant to store water efficiently and withstand dry conditions. In the right conditions, they may even produce small, pale purple flowers, adding a charming touch to their lush green appearance.

This evergreen plant grows in compact, trailing mounds with a height of around 12 inches. When touched, the leaves release a powerful menthol fragrance, similar to Vicks Vaporub. The plant typically grows in compact mounds with trailing stems that can extend outward. 


Vicks Plant Uses and Benefits

  • Soothing Menthol Fragrance: Its leaves emit a refreshing menthol scent, perfect for clearing the air or creating a calming atmosphere in your home or garden.

  • Natural Decongestant: Vicks Plant has traditionally been used to ease nasal congestion, much like its namesake, Vicks Vaporub, by simply inhaling its aroma.

  • Aromatic Companion: This fragrant herb can be grown in pots on windowsills or patios to keep the air fresh and fragrant year-round.

  • Decorative Accent: The plant’s attractive, trailing habit and fuzzy leaves make it a charming addition to hanging baskets or container gardens.

  • Natural Insect Repellent: Its strong aroma is known to repel certain pests, making it a useful companion plant in vegetable and herb gardens.

  • Air Purifier: Vicks Plant can help improve indoor air quality by naturally absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen, promoting a healthier environment.

  • Medicinal Uses: It has been used in folk medicine for its potential to ease colds, headaches, and skin irritations when its leaves are crushed and applied externally.


Vicks Plant Care, Maintenance, and Growing Tips

Vicks plants are suitable for growing in indoor and outdoor areas. With proper care, you can grow them in a regular pot or place them on hanging baskets for your aesthetics. Growing Vicks Plant is a breeze for gardeners of all levels. Here’s how to cultivate this aromatic herb:

  • Location: Vicks Plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight, usually in areas within Zones 9 to 12. It can tolerate some direct sunlight but prefers shaded areas in hotter climates.

  • Planting: Ideal for regular containers or hanging baskets with a recommended size of at least five gallons. Plant your Vicks plant in well-drained soil to prevent waterlogging.

  • Soil: A well-draining potting mix, like one used for succulents, is essential for this plant. The soil should provide adequate aeration while allowing excess water to escape.

  • Watering: Vicks Plant is drought-tolerant and only needs watering when the soil dries out. Overwatering should be avoided, as it can cause root rot.

  • Pruning: Regular pruning keeps the plant from becoming too leggy and promotes fuller growth. Harvest leaves as needed for their aroma or medicinal purposes, ensuring healthy regrowth.

  • Ecosystem: This plant is a great addition to your garden ecosystem, attracting helpful pollinators like bees and butterflies. Its strong aroma is also a natural repellent for certain garden pests and mosquitoes.

  • Companion Plants: Vicks Plant pairs well with other aromatic herbs like lavender, rosemary, and thyme. Its pleasant fragrance and pest-repelling properties make it an ideal companion in herb gardens or mixed planters.

Typos make this appear sloppy and questionable
Format: Paperback
Number of typos in the first chapter alone makes the info contained within questionable to me. P. 11 Indie games are “mostly releases through streaming services like Twitch and Switch”. Twitch is a streaming video site and Switch is Nintendo’s hybrid handheld/console. P.13: SHMUP is misspelled as SHUMP Survival Horror is listed as “players are generally helpless against a supernatural threat” which is not accurate for the genre’s most popular game, Resident Evil, where you’re well-armed against a non-supernatural threat. Vehicles simulation is listed as a genre but racing is not…even though they are not necessarily the same genre. P.14 Shigeru Miyamoto’s name is spelled as “Shiguru” I’m sure the following chapters will cover Ye Suzaku and Jean Romato.

Level Up Again: Essential Third Edition for Video Game Designers
Format: Paperback
If you’re serious about making fun and successful videogames, you will buy, read and learn from Level Up! 3rd Edition. I was the first person to pre order the 1st edition, and as someone who worked alongside Scott Rogers at videogame publisher THQ, I can tell you this newly expanded volume is the most complete, accessible guide to video game design yet. Scott Rogers remains the “heavy hitter” I described in my original review—equal parts lifelong gamer, pen and paper enthusiast, and seasoned industry pro. He’s witnessed games evolve from the ground up, studied every mechanic, and distilled decades of professional game design wisdom into lessons both beginners and veterans can apply immediately. Building on the solid foundation of the 1st edition—history, team roles, idea to concept mapping, the Triangle of Weirdness, and the Beat Chart—the 3rd Edition has been expanded to cover today’s challenges. You’ll see how to develop ideas with real world appeal and weave monetization strategies into your game designs from day one. A new chapter on playtesting walks you through structuring tests, gathering actionable feedback, and iterating mechanics, saving you weeks of blind alleys. There’s an in depth exploration of pre production through post mortem so you can avoid feature creep, scope collapse, and production bottlenecks. You’ll also find dedicated guidance for console, mobile, VR/AR/MR, and live service games—including detailed control schemes, UI/UX patterns, and economy rules tailored to each platform. And consistent with the first two editions, Scott includes new exercises and analogies—even an original chili recipe that illustrates balancing risk versus reward in game economies (and because Scott loves chili). You’ll still find the clear “Universal Truths” synopses at each chapter’s end, an updated table of contents and index for quick reference, and the cartoons and Rogers isms that make complex concepts easier to understand. If you want to level up your game design knowledge, grab this 3rd Edition of Level Up! For a deep dive on the original material, see my full review of the 1st edition on Amazon. Laddie Ervin Scott’s former boss and video game industry professional.

Like you have a smart helpful co-worker
Format: Paperback
This is the friendliest way to learn real practical game design you’ll ever find. Scott is an expert at this. He knows his stuff. And he’s happy to share. Joyous, even. This book is full of tips and stories and good ways to think about things. There are occasional academic frameworks, but most of those are side notes. Think of this more like you’re starting a job at the game studio of your dreams and the guy sitting next to you knows everything and wants to share. And he can draw! The sketches are cute and really help get the ideas across. I would read this without the images, but the images make it more fun and easier to absorb. I’ve read previous editions and this is the best version by far. The section on prototyping is especially nice. Prototyping is a key concept to learn, and breaking it down with some systems thinking is smart. The updated sketches and references throughout the book are also great - it feels current. About me: I’ve been a professional game designer for over 30 years. I’ve taught this material at colleges for almost ten years. I know game design. This is game design, but even more fun than it already is.
