Coleus thrives in cool, evenly moist, well-drained soil. In hot months, coleus grown in pots outdoors will need watering once or twice a day. If they are grown indoors, watering every two or three days is usually sufficient unless the indoor air is especially dry. Some modern coleus varieties handle full sun, but most still flourish with at least dappled shade and direct sun limited to morning hours.Coleus care tips
Pinching the growing tips of the coleus back regularly when it is young encourages branching and a bushy habit.
