Ornamental Features:

Pink Chaos Coleus' attractive small serrated narrow leaves remain pink in colour with distinctive light green edges and tinges of white throughout the year. Neither the flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant.

Landscape Attributes:

Pink Chaos Coleus is an herbaceous evergreen annual bedding plant with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition.

This is a relatively low maintenance annual bedding plant. The flowers of this plant may actually detract from its ornamental features, so they can be removed as they appear. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.

Pink Chaos Coleus is recommended for the following landscape applications;

• Container Planting
• General Garden Use
• Border Edging
• Mass Planting
• Hanging Baskets

Plant Characteristics:

Pink Chaos Coleus will grow to be about 18 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 18 inches. Although it's not a true annual, this fast-growing plant can be expected to behave as an annual in our climate if left outdoors over the winter, usually needing replacement the following year.

This annual bedding plant performs well in both full sun and full shade. It requires an evenly moist well-drained soil for optimal growth, but will die in standing water. It is not particular as to soil pH, but grows best in rich soils. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone over the growing season to conserve soil moisture. This plant can be propagated by cuttings.

This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America.
