Coleus 'Dark Star'

Plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Dark Star is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors.

Look to ensure a distance 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.0 inches (0.01 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 65°C / 149°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Dark Star about 56 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Dark Star is a tender plant.
