It’s hard to believe this delicate pastel colored coleus can stand up to hot, all day, full sun. Well that’s exactly where we’ve grown it the last few years and it has looked wonderful. Anna’s medium-sized ruffled leaves are pale pink with a green center and sprinkled with color patches. If the color patch is in the green portion, its hue is dark burgundy wine, while the color patches in the pale pink portion are a contrasting hot pink. This combination of color is further enhanced by the medium pink undersides of the leaves. Anna makes a nice show even as a single plant in a patio container.
