Coleus ‘Stu Junior’

Each year we trial several new sun Coleus for their ability to hold their color during the heat of the summer. The extreme summer of 2011 was hot enough to make many Coleus varieties fade out or burn. A showy coleus that passed the 2011 test with flying colors was Stu Junior. It showed excellent fade resistance with its leaves of yellow with burgundy-red centers and maintained a nice compact mounding habit without the need for pinching. It has quickly become an immediate favorite here at the nursery.
