Coleus

These foliage plants come in seemingly endless color combinations of red with green or yellow edges and chartreuse, light and dark green, and bronze markings. Leaves plants produce spike of insignificant blue-purple flowers.

Light
Coleus will tolerate shade, but growing them in sun will bring out their maximum range of color.

Water
Since coleus leaves are large and thin, they give off lots of water and will readily unless they have access to water almost continuously. Water regularly for lush growth.

Special Helps
Feed once a month with regular houseplants fertilizer. Propagate from stem cuttings. Use a standard potting mixture. Pinch tops to induce dense growth.
