Sun-loving foliage celosia brings colour and texture to containersWith limited options for attractive foliage plants from seed, growers often turn to coleus to add interest and texture to containers. The NEW Sol™ Collection is a fantastic new foliage celosia with relatively fast production time and no downy mildew issues. It holds well at retail and expands the options for consumers looking for sun-loving foliage accent plants for patio planters with a different texture and look, as well as for quick-growing, low, shrub-like plants that look great at the front of the border.Plug crop time: 3 to 4 weeksTransplant to finish: Spring, 7 to 10 weeks
