Coleus In morning sunshine  | |||
|  |
 |
||
| 1) 'Alabama Sunset' grows well in Oklahoma, preferably morning sun, afternoon shade. The more sun, the stronger the colors. | 2) 'Dipt 'n Wine' is another good grower, shown here anchoring the chinese garden seat. |
3) 'Solar Sunrise' may be mutating here (losing its bright creamy splotches). Perhaps it needs more sun to keep its color. | ||
|  |
 |
||
| 4) 'Blusher' is a bit on the velvety side, reflects a bit of light back into the camera. Actually prettier than this! | 5) This one is named 'Brilliancy' and is so true to it's name.
|
6) This one may be 'Eclipse'?? Anyone know differently? | ||
|  |
 |
||
| 7) 'Florida Sunrise' as a youngster. Several cuttings grow into a large clump. | 8) 'Firebrand' is the name, I believe....a nice, colorful lance leaf coleus.
|
9) This one is 'Gay's Delight'. | ||
|  |
 |
||
| 10) Could this be the real 'Japanese Giant'??? | 11) 'Inky Fingers'...a very small leafed coleus, but nice!
|
12) 'Lime Frills'...really frilly, a frothy green and white! | ||
|  |
 |
||
| 13) Mixed coleus and margarite potato vine. | 14) 'Molten Lava', which may also be called 'Tabasco', shown growing beside 'Dipt 'n Wine'.
|
15) 'Molten Lava' growing in the greenhouse, winter color seems to be brighter because of more controlled sunlight. | ||
