Zones
Current Location:
ColorBlaze® El Brighto Coleus foliage displays a spectacular, fiery show of luxurious purple and red centers with yellow margins. It is a highly saturated and impressive plant that is heat tolerant and adaptable as a houseplant when placed in a bright area. Deadheading is not necessary, making it an easy-to-care-for plant to add to containers as a thriller or your landscape to brighten up a shady corner.
  • 24-40 inches tall and 18-36 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zones 10-11
  • Plant in sun or shade
  • Space plants 18-36 inches apart for best results
  • Maintains red, yellow and orange variegated foliage spring through frost
  • Great for containers, landscapes, mass planting and focal point
  • Heat tolerant, foliage interest, adaptable as a houseplant, deadheading not necessary

The Eco+Grande features nutrients embedded in the container walls, which help plants grow bigger and faster throughout the season when planted in the ground. Be sure to remove the tabs from the container before planting. If you choose to plant in a container, we recommend taking the plant out of the Eco+Grande, breaking it apart, and mixing it into the soil at the time of planting. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product. Learn more about this in our blog.

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food. Many people feel that coleus look best before they flower. We have worked hard to choose coleus that bloom late in the season or not at all. To keep foliage in top shape, pinch off the blooms as they appear if you wish.
