Coleus x hybridus 'Kong Empire Mixed'
- Product number: 642350
- Origin: South and Southeast Asia
- Latin: Coleus x hybridus, or (new name): Plectranthus
An exciting breakthrough in the cultivation of this timeless ornamental foliage plant. The mixture contains a rich array of bright and warm colours. As the name suggests, the leaves can grow quite large, up to 30 cm (l x w)! The plants grow quickly and give a shady spot an exotic look... Height: 40-60 cm.
A plant with an old "windowsill tradition". The nettle-like leaves come in many shapes and colour variations. Easy to sow, "even a child can do it". Regular pinching prevents flowering and keeps the plant bushy. In summer, it is also beautiful outdoors, of course!
