COMPACT & VERSATILE GROWTH: With a mature height of 12 inches, coleus plants are suited for small gardens, borders, containers, and indoor spaces. Their compact growth habit allows for creative planting arrangements, while their flowering foliage adds visual interest to shaded or low-light areas, making them suitable for various landscapes.
SHADE-LOVING & CLIMATE ADAPTABILITY: Thriving in partial to full shade, coleus plants live and grow well in shaded garden beds, patios, and as houseplants. Suitable for USDA Zones 4-10, they grow across a range of climates, bringing color and texture to areas with limited light. They maintain their foliage vibrancy throughout the growing season.
SEASONAL FOLIAGE DISPLAY: Featuring rich red-to-midnight-purple tones with rippling edges, Black Dragon creates a captivating display. This foliage plant offers a season-long vibrant presence, making it a standout choice for both outdoor and indoor house plant seeds.
EASY PLANTING & SPACING: Sow 2-3 pelleted seeds per coleus plant on the soil surface without covering, as light is required for germination. Space plants 6 - 9 inches apart to support airflow and healthy growth. Seeds germinate in 10-14 days at 70-75°F, making Wizard Golden straightforward to grow for gardeners of any experience level.
LOW-MAINTENANCE & MOISTURE REQUIREMENTS: Coleus plants grow in moist, well-drained soil with a pH of 5.6-7.5. These deer-resistant plants require minimal upkeep and are suitable for outdoor planting or as houseplants. Whether grown from houseplant seeds or as mature plants, their ability to maintain vibrant foliage throughout the growing season ensures consistent color in gardens or indoor spaces.
Coleus (Black Dragon) - If you want to add some hot color into the shade border or sunny window this season, then look no further than 'Black Dragon' Coleus. This Coleus is an unusually richly-textured, warmly-colored foliage plant. Compact, very showy, and easy to grow, it's a must-have for anyone with a patch of shade to call their own! The leaves are spectacular, both for their red-to-midnight-purple color shading and their rippling edges, which give the plant much more presence than most Coleus. The leaves will turn color and begin to pucker at a very early age, making this one of the most fun seeds to start indoors. This compact plant reaches about a foot high and nearly as wide in partial to full shade (or bright indirect light indoors). In the garden, it's a fine companion to everything from Begonias to Impatiens. Indoors, it fills a 6 to 8 inch pot beautifully with color that never quits!
