October 19, 2007, Newsletter Issue #160: Shade Plants - Coleus
Tip of the Week
There are many shade plants to choose from. Try planting my favourite, Coleus, which does well in dappled or medium shade. Coleus comes in a tremendous range of foliage colors, shapes, and sizes. Leaves may be velvety or rough, and deeply notched, round or full on plants that range in height from 15 to 90 centimeters! Remember to remove the pale blue flowers as they appear and pinch out stems to encourage bushiness.
