## Description

desertcart.com : Seed Needs Coleus Seeds for Planting Rainbow Painted Nettle - Heirloom & Open Pollinated Mixed Flower Seed to Grow an Outdoor Butterfly Garden to Attract Pollinators (2 Packs) : Coleus Plants : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Wonderful Investment for your Garden - Bought these seeds last year. I was shocked at the wonderful plants that grew from this small packet. The plants great about 3 ft tall. People visiting my garden could not believe how beautiful these coleus were. And a great bonus is that the seeds will regrow new plants. Wonderful investment.
Review: Beautiful leaf colors and design. - This is a really great plant to grow and a great addition to your garden. Germinating these seeds was relatively easy, took a few days to germinate. I used soil pods and a cover, to trap in humidity and placed it on my balcony. Once seeds hatched I transplanted to a bigger pot with nutrient rich soil and seedlings took off! It grew about 3 feet in height may potentially grow bigger if using bigger pot.

## Features

- Plants - Coleus is a tender perennial that produces cheery and colorful foliage. They typically prefer areas of partial shade to almost full shade and go great in pots and containers.
- Growth - Coleus will grow to a mature height of about 18 to 30 inches tall and can spread out about 8 to 12 inches wide. The seeds are easily established by surface sowing and misting lightly.
- Colors - This mixture produces many different colors in the foliage. Some leaves will be mixes of green and yellow, some with pure green, and others with dark to light reds with green.
- Quality - All Coleus seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture.
- Quantity - Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored.
- Packets - Each seed packet displays an artful illustration of the variety to be grown, as well as detailed seed sowing information on the reverse side. They measure 3.25" wide by 4.50" tall.
- Promise - Seed Needs will never knowingly supply GMO based seed products. The vast majority of our seeds are open pollinated & heirloom, with the exception of a few hybrids.
- Germination - Seed Needs packets contain some of the freshest seed available. Direct from the growers. If sown correctly, you will begin seeing results in only a matter of days.
- Freshness - All Coleus seeds are packaged in tear resistant and moisture resistant packaging. This keeps the seeds a whole lot fresher than the competitions selection!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these perennials and will they tolerate zone 3-4 Winters?**
A: Coleus are treated as Annual plant in my zone 7.  I believe they were tropical plants from Asian country (don't remember exactly which country).  If I remember right, the first 40+ degrees in Oct killed them all in my yard.  But it's so easy to grow them from cuttings that I had cut a few stems off of each varieties and I started them inside.  I have good collections of coleus in several pots indoor.  In late Spring, I'm planning on put them out in the ground again!  It was my first year, but Coleus is the easiest plant to grow indoor and outdoor.  I love them!  You will too once you grow your own coleus from seeds! ;)

**Q: how many varitiys in the mix?**
A: I got 6-7 different kinds.

**Q: Are these seeds from USA?**
A: Yes they're from New Baltimore Michigan

**Q: Are these outside plants and do they die in winter and how to take cuttings off the plant**
A: That's 3 questions. They can be outdoor plants, but if kept outdoors, they will die in winter. They will be year round inside. To take cuttings, cut off a decent sized sprig, remove the lower leaves, place in clean water until roots grow.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soooo many seeds
*by M***E on April 11, 2021*

Update: these seeds produced some GORGEOUS coleus! So many different varieties. Some are HUGE. I have some going that are 3 and 4 feet tall and just look amazing. I would definitely buy seeds from this brand again. Just gorgeous! You will have like 80 million coleus plants. The seeds are sooo teeny tiny miniscule. I never knew what coleus seeds looked like. I had intended to plant them with the kids, but these aren't a good choice for that since the seeds are the size of a pin point. It says you get a total of 800 seeds and I would say it's more like what seems to be 80 million. I did up a bunch in little seedlings cups and put them under my lights. It got to the point I thought none were gonna sprout and then the next day, when looking super closely, I saw the teeny tiniest little green dot sprouts in all the cups. You really have to look hard to see them. After that, they all started popping up and growing more. Since the seeds are so tiny, I was just picking up a bunch on my finger tip and then sort of flicking them off into my little soil cups. I figured half probably wouldn't be viable anyway, so no big deal. Nope. Seems like they pretty much all sprouted and now there's a million coleus growing in each lil seedling pot. Sooooo now I am about to redo into bigger cups and separate all the tiny plants before they entangle roots. I am so curious to see how they end up and what the colors will be. Hopefully not all green. I will update my review as things go along, but as of now I'm perfectly happy with them. Even though it seemed to take long to germinate and see a sprout, it was actually quicker than it was supposed to be. I still have no idea how I will use up all the seeds. Definitely a great value.
