Coleus (Medium) Charged Up Vulcan 4.5"

ChargedUp™ Vulcan Coleus: Fiery Elegance for Sun or Shade

Ignite your garden with the dramatic, multi-toned foliage of the Coleus ChargedUp™ Vulcan. This standout variety is a "thriller" in every sense, featuring bold, velvety-crimson centers that transition into deep burgundy-black, all framed by an electric gold-to-chartreuse serrated edge.

Unlike older varieties, ChargedUp™ Vulcan is bred for high-impact performance. It maintains its intense red hues even in high light and is exceptionally late to flower (or may never flower at all), ensuring your garden stays focused on its stunning leaves rather than messy seed pods.

Key Features

• Dynamic Foliage: Features a tricolor pattern of fiery red, deep burgundy, and bright gold edges.

• Sun & Shade Versatility: Thrives in everything from full sun to full shade, making it a flexible choice for any landscape.

• Low Maintenance: Naturally well-branched and upright; it requires no pinching to maintain its mounded, bushy shape.

Growth & Care Tips

• Planting: Wait until temperatures are reliably above 60°F before moving outdoors. It’s perfect for large containers, garden borders, or mass plantings.

• Color Intensity: While it holds its red in the sun, you may notice more distinct pink veining when grown in shadier locations.

• Feeding: Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every two weeks for container plants to keep that "charged up" color throughout the season.

Pro Tip: Pair Vulcan Coleus with lime-green companions like Sweet Potato Vine or Chartreuse Petunias to make the dark burgundy tones truly pop!
