Coleus 'Beckwith's Gem'

Beckwith's Gem likes a position of partial sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Beckwith's Gem is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.0 inches (0.01 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 65°C / 149°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Beckwith's Gem about 56 days before your last frost date.

As Beckwith's Gem is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
