Kong Empire Mix
Coleus Seeds
Kong Empire Mix is a formulated mix of the individual Kong series coleus. The enormous leaves grow up to 6 in. wide, and are dramatically marked. Plants are vigorous, mounding and well-branched to 24 in. tall.
Kong Empire Mix coleus prefer more shade than most coleus, the extra-large leaves can burn in hot sun. Beautiful in beds and borders, and also a highly ornamental house plant.
Growing Kong Empire Mix Coleus Seeds
Plant Kong Coleus Seeds: Sow seed in cell packs or flats, use a sterilized soil-less mix. Press seeds into soil, do not cover. Needs light to germinate. Kept at 70-75°F., seedlings emerge in 10-14 days. After all danger of frost transplant into 4 in. containers, or into the garden 12 to 18 in. apart. Direct sowing is not recommended.
Grow Kong Coleus: Part sun to light shade. Rich, moist soil. Remove flowers as they form to keep coleus foliage visible, healthy and growing. Near the end of the season, allow some of the nectar-rich flowers to form. Blooms will attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Kong series coleus are excellent container plants, and our choice for the finest coleus to grow indoors in a brightly lit window.
