Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover, as light aids germination. Maintain a temperature of 70-75°F and keep the growing medium evenly moist. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions after the danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, choose a location with partial to full shade and well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Pinch back growing tips to encourage a fuller, bushier plant. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fairway Mosaic Coleus is generally low-maintenance and rewards with vibrant foliage throughout the growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Fairway Mosaic Coleus seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824635117878,"sku":"FOLIA2-822","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7074716323_fhey.jpg?v=1793003774","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-fairway-mosaic-coleus-seeds-colorful-shade-plant-for-garden-beds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
