Coleus Chocolate Mint - Fantastic Foliage

The striking foliage of the Coleus 'Chocolate Mint' lives up to its name, with its distinctive blend of deep chocolate-brown centres surrounded by vivid green margins that resemble a freshly minted chocolate bar. This species is well-known for its amazing foliage, which enhances any garden setting, container, or hanging basket with a rich texture and colour contrast.

'Chocolate Mint' grows best in well-drained, rich soil and is suitable for both partly sunny and shady areas. It needs to be watered frequently to keep the soil continuously moist but not soggy, but other than that, it is quite simple to maintain. It is a fragile perennial; therefore, avoid the direct afternoon sun to avoid scorching the leaves. For a striking contrast, pair it with colourful blooming plants like begonias or impatiens.
