Coleus, often called the “Queen of Colors,” is celebrated as one of the most striking ornamental plants for both indoor and outdoor spaces. Its vibrant, multicolored leaves—blending shades of green, red, purple, and sometimes yellow—make it a standout choice for any plant lover. If you’re new to gardening, Coleus is an excellent pick because it’s low-maintenance yet delivers breathtaking results.
🌿 Essential Coleus Care Guide
Light Requirements
Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate partial shade.
Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which may scorch its delicate leaves.
Watering Tips
Prefers consistently moist soil—water when the top layer feels slightly dry.
Be cautious not to overwater, as soggy soil can lead to root rot.
Ideal Soil
Use a light, well-draining potting mix enriched with organic matter for optimal growth.
Pruning for Perfection
Regularly trim the stem tips to encourage bushier growth and maintain lush, vibrant foliage.
