Hi Has anyone ever grown Coleus from seeds? If so how long did it take for them to come. I got excited when I saw a picture of red velvet coleus. Thanks for the help & God bless you!!! Kathy
I read somewhere once that it was not worth the trouble growing coleus from seed. So, guess what, I had to prove them wrong. I got some seed, sowed them in Jiffy seed starting mix and they germinated and grew into very pretty coleus. Would I do it again, YES, it was well worth the trouble, which was no trouble at all. I want to try the Kong coleus from seed, but not this year. If I recall it didn't take them too long to grow, and since they stay pretty until frost I say go for it.
If I remember correctly coleus only take around 10 days to germinate. I ould be wrong though as it's years since I grew any.
I grew Coleus from seed last year. They only took 10 to 12 days and oy, did I have Coleus! Prairie Lily
They are very pretty.I have some seeds of Coleus I need to get started all though I'm not sure how long they take to start.
