Solenostemon scutellaroides Wizard Mixed
Coleus, Painted Nettle
The ordering process, the (very short) delivery deadlines being met, pleasant phone contact, delivery in the mailbox, everything was perfect, which is quite rare in these times of apocalypse and false pretenses. What remains is the wonderful work of nature, which cannot be subject to any audit, for which we will never have enough gratitude, a blooming that I eagerly await with joy...

Description
Coleus Wizard Mix has 3 different Latin names: Coleus Wizard Mixed, Solenostemon scutellarioides Wizard Mixed, and Coleus blumei var. verschaffeltii Wizard Mixed.
This variety is a recent horticultural creation, this group of Coleus is native to Southeast Asia. In its habitat, this plant is a perennial and forms small woody shrubs, but in our climate, it should be considered as an indoor plant or grown in the garden as an annual plant.
It exhibits characteristics of plants in the Labiaceae family (which includes Common Nettle): fleshy square stems, toothed and velvety leaves on the underside.
The success of the Coleus Wizard Mixed or 'Painted Nettle' is due to its magnificent foliage, slightly velvety and in multiple colours.
In the garden or indoors, it prefers a sunny or semi-shaded position. Plant it in improved soil, half of which is leaf compost or compost. Take care with watering, but avoid excess water.

Planting and care
You can sow Coleus all year round. Use good quality soil, possibly enriched with well decomposed compost. Lightly press the surface of the sowing tray before sowing your seeds on the surface. Do not cover the seeds with soil. Water with a fine rain. Place your tray in light, at a temperature of 20 to 25°C (68 to 77°F). Using a mini greenhouse will speed up germination.
The seeds will germinate in 10 to 20 days. As soon as the plants have reached a sufficient height to be handled, transplant them into 7cm (3in) pots. Then plant them into their final pot with a diameter of 15cm (6in).
For plants that will be planted outdoors, start gradually acclimatising them to a temperature of 15°C (59°F), 15 days before their final planting. By the end of May or early June, the temperature in the garden will be warm enough to plant your young plants. Choose a sunny location. Add a good handful of compost to each planting hole. Space your plants 25 to 30cm (10 to 12in) apart.
Remove flower spikes as soon as they form to prevent premature exhaustion of the plant.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
