Coleus is a perennial plant that fits very well on a shiny balcony.

Indirect sunlight, at least 2-3 hours/ day.

Moderate watering when the soil gets dry.

Low maintenance plant.

 

Growing Conditions:

Light:

Coleus plants thrive in full sunshine. They will tolerate partial shade, and to some degree, full shade. Leaf drop is common, if the plants do not get enough sunlight, and especially if they are moved from an area of full sun to shade, without an adjustment period.

Water:

Coleus needs moist soil. The soil should not remain wet all the time, but long dry spells will slow the plants’ growth and the leaves will start to turn brown around the edges.

Tip:

Keep Coleus plants trimmed. Remove spent blooms, dead or dying leaves, and cut back any stems that are sick or unsightly. The plant will quickly produce more. Pruning will cause the plant to grow bushier.

Plant Care Guide

Coleus grows best in bright, indirect light where its foliage develops the richest and most vibrant colors. It can tolerate gentle morning sun, but strong afternoon sunlight may fade or scorch the leaves. If grown outdoors, choose a spot with partial shade for the best appearance

Keep the soil evenly moist, allowing only the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. Coleus prefers consistent moisture and may wilt quickly if it becomes too dry, but it usually recovers well after watering. Avoid leaving the roots in soggy soil.

Feed every two weeks during spring and summer with a balanced NPK fertilizer. Regular feeding encourages lush, colorful foliage and continuous growth. Reduce fertilizing during the cooler months when growth naturally slows.

Coleus is grown for its stunning foliage rather than its flowers. Pinch off the growing tips regularly to encourage a fuller, bushier plant, and remove any flower spikes as they appear so the plant keeps putting its energy into producing vibrant leaves.

Dark shade places make the foliage colors pale, keen on a moderate lighting conditions to keep it colorful.
