Assorted Coleus

Check out the new introduction of Kong coleus plants displayed this year at the California Spring Trials. Bred by Ball Growers, this new coleus plant sports huge leaves painted in bright colored designs. The display for the Spring Trials featured many different varieties of coleus plants. Some of the smaller plants are sun-tolerant even where temperatures get hot in the summer. The larger leafed varieties like the newly introduced coleus ‘Kong’ needs shade.  Although most coleus plants grow as annuals, some odd plants can over-winter and live for more than one season where conditions are mild.  The flowers of the coleus are attractive spires of purple, but the leaves are usually so showy that they overwhelm the flowers.
