  • Species and varieties: Coleus (Plectranthus scutellarioides) is a species known for its vibrant and colorful foliage. The red coleus is a popular variety within this species, characterized by its striking red leaves. There are many varieties of coleus, each with unique leaf patterns and colors, including 'Redhead', 'Kong Red', and 'Wizard Scarlet'.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Coleus seeds can be both hybrid and heirloom. Hybrid varieties are often bred for specific traits such as color intensity and leaf shape, while heirloom varieties are open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations, maintaining their original characteristics.
  • Pruning and training: Regular pruning helps maintain the shape and encourages bushier growth. Pinch back the growing tips to promote branching. Remove any flower spikes that appear to keep the plant focused on foliage production.
  • Fertilization needs: Coleus plants benefit from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to leggy growth and reduced leaf color intensity.
  • Hardiness zones: Coleus plants are typically grown as annuals in USDA hardiness zones 10-11. In cooler climates, they are often grown as annuals or houseplants.
  • Climate requirements: Coleus thrives in warm, humid climates. They prefer temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C) and do not tolerate frost. They grow best in partial shade to full shade, as direct sunlight can scorch their leaves.
