Description

Size and Growth Habit: The Coleus Coleosaurus typically reaches a height of 14 to 28 inches (36 to 71 cm) and can spread between 24 to 36 inches (61 to 91 cm). Its upright and bushy growth habit allows it to serve as both a thriller and filler in garden designs, providing a lush backdrop or focal point.

Foliage: The foliage is the main attraction of this plant. The leaves are large, with a unique combination of dark red and lime green colors that create a bold visual impact. The intricate patterns and serrated edges add further interest, making it a favorite among gardeners looking for dramatic color contrasts.

Light Requirements: Coleus Coleosaurus thrives in various light conditions. It can be planted in full sun (6+ hours), part sun (4-6 hours), or shade (up to 4 hours), allowing for versatility in placement. However, for optimal color vibrancy, it is recommended to provide some shade during the hottest parts of the day.

Watering Needs: This plant prefers average water requirements. It should be kept evenly moist but not soggy; good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. Regular watering will help maintain its lush appearance while avoiding complete dryness.
