Welcome! The Rosy Dawn Gardens Coleus Catalog has pictures and descriptions of over 260 different varieties of beautiful Coleus. Coleus (Solenostemon scutellarioides) are an annual foliage plant in the U.S. and have become immensely popular due to their seemingly endless array of colors, shapes, and sizes. Coleus are versatile and are great for both shade gardening and for growing in sunny areas. Because their color is not dependant on flowers, Coleus look great all summer long! Whether used in containers or garden beds, Coleus are unmatched for the creative possibilities that they offer!  We have divided our Coleus catalog into 4 different sections so that each page is faster to load. Each plant is individually priced at $4.75 per plant.

Please note: We do not offer a printed version of our catalog, it is available on-line only. For specific questions about our Coleus and Coleus care please refer to our FAQ and Coleus Care Pages. If you need help making a decision, please visit our Selection Guide. When you are ready to place your order, please visit our Ordering Information page.

Coleus can be variable in color, pattern, and height.  Environmental factors such as light intensity, day length, soil, water, and fertilization will all have an effect on the appearance of coleus.   The below heights should be used as a guideline only.  Click on the photo to enlarge, click on the "back" button to return to the catalog.
