Coleus Plant is native to Southeast Asia and parts of India and is loved for its stunning, multicolored foliage rather than flowers. Its leaves come in vibrant shades of green, red, pink, purple, and yellow, making it one of the most eye-catching ornamental plants. Coleus grows quickly and adds instant brightness wherever it’s placed. It is widely used in Indian homes and gardens for its bold texture and rich leaf patterns.

This plant is easy to care for and adapts well to Indian weather when given proper light and regular trimming. Coleus is perfect for balconies, windowsills, hanging planters, or garden borders where it can stand out beautifully. Regular pruning helps maintain bushy growth and enhances leaf color. With the right care, Coleus becomes a lively décor element that instantly refreshes any space.
