Notes

'Splish Splash' coleus (Coleus scutellarioides 'Splish Splash') is an annual for borders and shade gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun to full shade and average moisture. It grows upright and reaches 18 to 30 inches tall. Deer rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Impatiens, Lilyturf, and Holly fern.
