Not only does this coleus have coral-colored foliage, the leaf shape actually looks like living coral. It's very distinctive, really dressing up a mixed foliage display. Excellent alongside coarser-leafed and monochromatic plants. It grows fast and fills in an area nicely. In frost-free zones it'll be evergreen, and in cooler zones it's often used as an annual, or you can overwinter it indoors. An excellent filler for annual container gardens, especially for downtown gardens as it thrives even with city pollution. More good news, deer tend not to eat this coleus.
