Coleus Rainbow Seeds, Mix of Colors, Shade Lover Plant, over 20 seeds per package Outstanding mixture; the best & brightest colors of medium-sized leaf varieties. Coleus is grown for its brilliant, glowing foliage rather than flowers. This is a great mixture of bright colors. I love it on my front porch & it loves the morning sun for about 2 hours. It is so easy to grow from seed & really takes very little watering each week. It also looks great in the shady garden bed areas & gives you a great pop of color for shady garden borders, too. Coleus may be grown from seed sown early indoors & transplanted outside after frost. Sowing Seed Indoors: Sow indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. Sow seeds lightly covered with fine soil. Keep the soil moist. Coleus can benefit with bottom heat. Seedlings emerge in 12-21 days. As soon as seedlings emerge, provide plenty of light. Thin to one seedling per cell when they have two sets of leaves. Transplant hardened-off seedlings to the garden after the frost. Planting Potted Plants in the Garden: Select a location in full to part shade with good rich well-drained soil protected from wind. Plants should stand about 12 inches apart in the garden. Dig a hole for each plant large enough to accommodate the root ball. Water thoroughly. Until plants become established, some protection from extreme winds & direct, hot sunlight may be necessary. Good air movement is also important. After new growth appears, a light fertilizer may be applied. Pinch stem tips just above a leaf pair to keep plants maintain their compact, bushy habit. Coleus also makes a fine house plant. Bring smaller plants indoors before the first frost.
