{"product_id":"kong-series-empire-mix-coleus","title":"Kong Series Mix Coleus","description":"\u003cp\u003eColossal leaves, the biggest we have seen for coleus and coming in a kaleidoscope of colors. If you want a stunning, vibrant shade garden or container planting with low maintenance, this mix fills those needs, awarding you with long-lasting foliage all season. When the first frost is nearing here we like to take cuttings and dig up some plants, bringing them indoors for colorful houseplants. Well-branched plants start out in the seedling stage, no pinching back needed, and form upright mounds 18” wide by 20” high.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e15 seeds\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #40b30f;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePLANTING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSolenostemon scutellarioides\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnnual\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 10-15 days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination Temperature:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOptimum soil temperatures 70-75ºF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeed Planting Depth:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Sow on the surface, needs light to germinate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStarting Indoors\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStart indoors 8-12 weeks before the last frost.
