Coleus scutellarioides - Coleus

Bring colour into your home with the Coleus, also known as the painted nettle. These special plants are very popular thanks to their striking leaves in different colours and patterns. They are often kept as a houseplant, but can also be placed outside, directly in the ground or in a pot. Please note that the painted nettle is not winter hardy so it must overwinter indoors. You will receive 3 differently coloured plants in one pot.

Care
To keep the colours of the leaves as expressive as possible, the ornamental nettle likes to be in a light spot with a lot of indirect sunlight. If the plant gets direct sunlight, the leaves can scorch. The ornamental nettle also likes to be in a draught-free spot. Always keep the soil of the ornamental nettle slightly moist. During the growing season, it needs more water than in the winter. Check regularly with your finger whether the soil is still moist. Is the plant starting to droop? Then the plant needs water. Outdoor care for the ornamental nettle is almost the same, no direct sun and keep the soil moist. Be extra careful in warm temperatures, because water evaporates extra quickly.

Format
The plants have a height of 25-35cm upon delivery, measured including the nursery pot. The plants are supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 17cm.
