A Kaleidoscope of Coleus
There are very few annuals in my perennial gardens. However, I brought home a few sale-priced Sun Coleus several weeks ago because I fell for the glorious display at the nursery. I'm now trying to think of how to use these next year. These outlandish colors and designs are doing well planted together in full sun in the ground and in a planter(until the frost arrives if I leave them outside). There is a kaleidoscope of colors from coleus...Happy Gardening!
