The Kong series of coleus are truly spectacular. The Kong Rose shown here was growing in full sun in the spring. Unfortunately, as it heated up, the plant began to fade and melt. While some "sun coleus" can thrive in full sun, the large leaved Kong series perform best with more shade.

This would be a wonderful addition to the comments section for the plant entry rather than just attached to the photo! That way everyone can read it when they check out the entry. Just click on the plant name above your image and the scroll down below the images to the 'Adding Actions' section and add a comment.
