Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Richly colored, deep mahogany leaves are beautifully edged in gold on this large leaved Coleus to 15” tall. Great with golden foliaged Lysimachia nummularia ‘Aurea’ or purple foliage like Anthriscus sylvestris ‘Raven’s Wing’. Great mixed into your fall plantings or lovely in a container. Our favorite Coleus!
