    About the Coleus Daiquiri

    Care Instructions

    Coleus need to be kept moist, rich, loose, well drained soil. Before planting you can add a perlite or organic compost. Let the soil dry out a bit between watering, and water if the top inch or the soil feels dry.

    Position, sunlight and more

    Coleus prefer dappled shade, rather than full sun.

    Height and Spread

    Coleus Copinto series can grow in height and spread from 30-90cm.

    Feeding, Pruning & more

    Feeding - If you have rich soil, you may not need to fertilize. If you don't add a balanced slow release fertilizer, then you will get the best colour from the leaves.
    Pruning - Pinch out the growing tips, when the plants are established (6 inch tall). Alternatively, pinch under the bud, this will encourage the plant to spend its energy on the leaves rather than the seeds and flowers.
    Propagate - Stem cuttings are an easy way to grow, free new Coleus.

    Our pot & plant size explained

    At Newlands Nursery we grow and sell plants in a variety of different sizes, from small starter plants up to planted containers. 

    We know it can be tricky to picture the size of each plant. This page gives you an idea of the size of the plants we are sending out.

    Please keep in mind that plants vary from one season to the next. The size of the plant refers to the pot or plug it is grown in, rather than the height of the plant, unless specifically mentioned on the plant page.

    Starter Plant (Plug Plant)

    Plug Size: 2cm by 4cm. Our most popular size. This is often the most economical way of buying plants and is a great way to get a head start on the season. Generally this size is best to be potted up before planting out.
