How to grow
How To Grow Coleus From Seed: Sow flower seeds indoors. Gently press the seeds into the starter mix, but do not cover the flower seeds. Transplant the Coleus seedlings once they have at least 2 - 3 sets of true leaves.
Coleus plants perform best in part to full shade and moist, well-drained soil enriched with organics. You will love watching the new seedlings emerge, showing their permanent coloring from the time of their appearance. Enjoy these foliage plants from spring through fall, or year-round indoors.
