Growing Method

Example of a Coleus Plant Shipped by Rosy Dawn Gardens

Our coleus plants are large, well-rooted starter plants grown in a growing mix contained in a root permeable, degradable fabric sleeve. There is no need to remove the sleeve before planting. The root ball will be approximately 1 3/4" in diameter X 1 3/4" high. Pictured below is an example of a coleus plant grown by Rosy Dawn Gardens. At shipping time most of our plants range between 4" and 12" in height, depending on the variety. This starter plant will grow quickly when planted in a 4" pot or larger and kept in a warm, well-lit environment.
