Coleus Premium Sun Coral Candy

While this variety is bred for improved sun tolerance, it still performs best with some protection from intense afternoon heat. In very hot climates, providing partial shade will help prevent the foliage from bleaching or scorching.

Regularly pinching back the stem tips is essential to encourage branching. This simple maintenance prevents the plant from becoming leggy and promotes a dense, mounding habit.

It is best to pinch off any flower spikes as they appear. Since this plant is grown for its striking foliage, removing the blooms helps the plant direct its energy into producing more vibrant leaves.

Yes, this Coleus roots very easily from tip cuttings. You can take cuttings during the growing season to start new plants or to keep a backup indoors before the first frost.

Absolutely. Its modest 12- to 16-inch mature size and mounding growth habit make it an excellent choice for pots, window boxes, and mixed container arrangements.

In most climates, this Coleus is treated as an annual and will not survive the winter outdoors. However, if you live in Zone 10 or higher, it can be grown as a perennial, or you can bring it indoors to overwinter in colder regions.
