Growing Information

How to Sow

Coleus are easy to grow from seed. You can sow them direct, but you'll get the best results if you start them in trays. Just cover the seeds after sowing them thinly, and keep moist. Once the second pair of leaves develops, they're ready to transplant into pots or garden beds.
