Park Seed Giant Exhibition Complete Mix Coleus Seeds, Large Multi-Colored Foliage on Compact Plants, Classic Victorian Houseplant or Shade Garden Accent, Pack of 20

If your familiar with this seed you know they are extremely tinny and I mean tiny. Tiny seed take awhile to germinate and need care. I am in the North East. I start the seeds in March. I plant in one big container and cover with a clear top w with a few holes. This acts like a moist garden shed. The soil is just a little moist. When it needs more moisture I use a spray bottle and will continue with this until the growth is big enough to transplant and this will be at laeast 10 weeks. Here in the North East I prefer to put this plant outside in June. So have patience and it it is worth the enjoyment of this beautiful coleus.

Not ONE plant came up. What a waste of time and money! I'll never buy these again. -------- After looking up what Coleus seeds even look like, I'm not 100% sure that's what I even got! They're smaller that ground pepper and NOT 20 of them. For $9.50?? I should've waited and just bought a couple grown plants and propagate them myself! Very doubtful they'll even come up.

These were a breeze! Throw in the soil, and they grow. I sprinkled them in a pot in my greenhouse in April and they are coming up beautifully. Too soon for the actual flowers but the plants seem healthy

Not one of these seeds germinated. I was excited to get these so that my kids could grow them and show them in 4-H at their fairs. We took excellent care of our seeds. Planted them soon after we got them and not one germinated. We are all disappointed and have reached out to the seller about these seeds. Have yet to hear back from them and they have had a week or so to respond. DO not recommend buying these. Normally the seller will at least respond to you.

My husband and I grow most of our own food, and I have grown coleus before. I put the seeds in fine potting soil, kept damp, and put them in bright, indirect sunlight, here in FL---very warm, but I have grown them year round before, under similar conditions. Took weeks before they got large enough to transplant. Now, they are about 1.5 ft. tall. With about 12 plants, we only have 2 color patterns: mostly green with dark purple splotches in the center, and the other is completely dark purple. Nothing like the colorful mix that is pictured in the ad. I ended up buying some tiny plants at a garden center, which have grown very well. Maybe I just got a bad batch of seeds or they got too hot in shipping or something.

Beautiful seeds

**Update at end So i didn't get the full amount promised (I think I was short 2 or they were broken) and 6 did not come up. But I am happy with the variety, they germinated within 4 days with heat mat and grow lights. They are still in those conditions, planted 3/13, pics are from 4/11 so just under a month! Would def buy again. **Update 5/21 So the pictures of them individually were taken at 10 weeks. I do like them, I made the mistake of pinching them back to promote better growth, but not all of these seem to respond well to that, particularly the dark ones. I did get a good mix, the one with the massive leaves is crazy! These do not seem to do well in sun (I have them in an east facing window in zone 6A, still to early to plant outside) and they sometimes start to look wilted (again, particularly the dark ones). The last pic of a dark one I tried trimming back... It is hanging on, but I'm not sure it is going to make it. I also noticed when you pinch them, you so NOT get 2 leaves out of them so just an FYI on that. So, in closing, these are def shade or early sun for maybe 2-3 how max (in zone 6A Colorado). Hope this is helpful!

Thought they should be sprouting by now. Put all the seeds from two orders seed sprouting soil. I thought I didn’t have any seeds in the first package so I did a replacement order and the second one looked like it didn’t have any seeds either, so I put whatever was in the first package in one pot and the second package in another pot and it’s still not sprouting or even showing promise. It says to keep indoors with occasional sunlight for 6 to 8 weeks, but still not showing any growth.
