How to Sow and Plant

Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow on or just below the soil surface in a moist, well-drained seed-starting mix, as coleus seeds are very fine. Maintain warmth and moisture until germination.

How to Grow

Plant in partial shade or filtered sunlight for best leaf coloration. Space plants 8–12 inches apart for airflow and healthy growth. Water regularly to keep soil lightly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Pinch tips to promote bushier growth and maintain vibrant, full foliage.
