Professional Growing Information I grew these form the tiny little 4” that were shipped to me and they grew! And grew! The Rediculous, along with some others are in the front of my house and look totally fabulous! I overheard someone walking any and commenting how beautiful the plants looked. I am a novice gardener and do not know what i am doing but they were easy to grow and have thrived with little fuss. I am ordering more!

This jazzy new Coleus for sun and shade features red leaves, forming a very well-branched plant that works well in landscapes and containers. Like all ColorBlaze® Coleus, it is bred to take the heat and bloom very late in the season, if at all, extending its garden performance into the fall.

Maintenance Notes:Many people feel that coleus look best before they flower. We have worked hard to choose coleus that bloom late in the season or not at all. To keep foliage in top shape, pinch off the blooms as they appear if you wish.
Rules of Thumb for Overwintering Plants Indoors:
1. Choose only healthy plants
2. Bring Plants indoors before frost damages foliage
3. Treat for disease and insects before bringing plants indoors
4. Place in bright areas and add humidity using pebble trays or spray bottles
5. Be careful not to over water
6 When active growth starts in spring fertilize and prune as needed
7. Introduce your plants slowly to outdoor conditions in spring
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
