Description

The listing, "Black Dragon" Coleus (8) has ended.

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. (For even fuller, bushier plants, pinch back the young tips a few times during the growth season.) Coleus germinates readily and grows eagerly.

Questions & Comments

what time of the year do you plant them how deep and do they need shade or sunlight?

These are for shade if growing outside. Start inside.Temperatures for germination 70 to 80 degrees F and it takes from 7 to 21 days to germinate. They can be grown indoors in a sunny window out of direct sun light. This is an annual so it will not produce seed and you have to re-plant it each year. The seeds are tiny so I would not cover them, just press them lightly into the soil, and keep the soil moist. Do not let it dry out!
