This "cute as a button" Coleus relative has white edged leaves which contrast with dark tinted stems bearing spires of lavender pink flowers in fall and winter. In frost free zones it will form a tidy shrub, 18" x 18". Great all season foliage, good in pots!
Spikes of rosy pink to purple flowers are held above the dainty cream and green variegated foliage. An excellent choice for mixed containers or borders. Item# 9388.
