The Coleus Bourbon Street brings New Orleans energy straight to your windowsill, with deep wine-red leaves edged in a lively green ruffle. The velvety foliage seems to glow from within, especially when the light catches it late in the day. It grows fast and generously, so the colour show only gets bigger. Regular pinching keeps it full and compact, and every cutting roots easily in water. Give it plenty of light and it will jazz up any room. A little festival in a nursery pot.
Your Coleus shows its brightest colours in plenty of light, so give it a spot with lots of brightness and even a little gentle morning sun. Water weekly and keep the soil lightly moist, because this fast grower gets thirsty and will dramatically droop when dry (it perks right up after a drink). Normal room humidity is fine. Pinch out the growing tips regularly to keep your plant bushy and full instead of leggy. Feed monthly in spring and summer to fuel all that colourful new growth. Keep it warm, ideally above 15 degrees, and away from cold draughts. Do keep it out of reach of pets, as the leaves are not meant for nibbling.

Your order will be hand picked and packed in our strong and sustainable packaging as soon as possible, after which it will be delivered straight from our greenhouse to your door by your chosen carrier. You can follow the journey of your plants via the tracking link you receive in your mail. If you have any questions regarding your order and its shipment, you can get in contact with our support team.
We expect every order to arrive in tip-top shape. We take intensive care of the plants in our greenhouse and use special and as sustainable as possible protective packaging to ship our plants. We also wrote an extensive blog about how to unpack and prepare your plants for growth after shipping. However there are rare occasions where our plants don’t meet their full potential. That’s why all plants are guaranteed for 30 days after arrival, if still in its original nursery pot.
Perfect match for your jungle
