Description

Striking colours and patterns emerge on these summertime favourite solutions for foliage and potted plants.

This trio offer dense foliage displays of colour, whether planted alongside one-another, or dotted throughout the garden for a wider, uniform design.

Bring these sweet-shaded delights to your garden, including the ‘Coral Candy’ pink leaves, the lime green edged red foliage of ‘Chocolate Covered Cherry’, and ‘Watermelon’, with pink-splashed leaves.

Grow these summer foliage delights out on the patio or balcony in your favourite pot, use to fill hanging baskets, or add impressive colour and patterns to bedding schemes.

Coleus are ideal for dressing up both the inside and outside of your home, as when potted should be moved indoors for the autumn and winter months, before heading back into the garden to thrive in spring and summer.

Supplied as 12 plug plants, ready to be grown on, before planting out. Including four each of:

  • Coleus ‘Coral Candy’ – A particular favourite with impressive foliage, featuring dark pink leaves with some vibrant pink shading and bright, lime green edging, which add real character.
  • Coleus ‘Chocolate Covered Cherry’ – Further lime-edges can be seen on the cherry-red leaves of the ‘Chocolate Covered Cherry’ variety of Coleus.
  • Coleus ‘Watermelon’ – Unique foliage with lemon-green edged, raspberry-pink splashed leaves.
Top Tips
Pinch regularly to help Coleus to thrive and produce a dense carpet of colour.
Care Information
  • Unpack plugs immediately, and stand them in water for an hour. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
  • Plugs may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post but they’ll quickly recover. Put them somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
  • When potting on, handle plugs carefully. Pot on using our 9cm pots in Shuttle Trays, using good multi-purpose compost.
  • Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry. They don’t like to be left in standing water.
  • Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
  • Remove any emerging flower spikes to retain a bushy habit on each plant.
  • When growing in pots, be sure to move the plants inside, such as the greenhouse or conservatory, for the autumn and winter months.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
