Romeo and Juliet

NEW ColorBlaze^® Royale Cherry Brandy^™ Solenostemon - Common Name: Coleus

Description: There's drama written all over this gorgeous ruby red coleus. Its purple undertones help it to pair easily with almost any other color in combination containers, where it will play a starring role of thriller or filler. It forms a bushy, upright clump that is denser than coleus with large leaves, so its overall look is more refined. You could also try massing it in landscapes as a neat backdrop for shorter flowers along a border.

20-30" tall. Sun or Shade. Annual.
