Coleus 'Dark Heart'

Coleus 'Dark Heart'

Infuse your garden with bold color and flair using Coleus 'Dark Heart,' a stunning annual prized for its richly hued, velvety foliage and dramatic contrast. Each serrated, heart-shaped leaf unfurls in a deep burgundy to near-black shade, highlighted by vivid magenta veining that radiates from the center like a pulse of color through shadow. Compact and upright in form, 'Dark Heart' makes a statement in shaded beds, mixed borders, and containers—especially where bold texture and moody tones are desired. Though it seldom flowers, its vivid foliage more than carries the show from spring through frost.

Care tips:

• Light: Partial shade to filtered sun; tolerates full sun in cooler climates with adequate moisture
• Water: Moderate; keep soil consistently moist but not soggy
• Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil enriched with organic matter
• Maintenance: Low; pinch tips to encourage bushier growth and remove any flower spikes to prolong leaf display
