.I am no longer ordering annuals online because I have a great resource here as you do.
I only order RosyDawn coleus. I finally figured out what "sun tolerant" means. It means the coleus wont turn to krispy kritters .It doesnt mean they retain the same colors as in the website.Most will turn red.
I like to change the look from year to year ,using some favorites.
This seaqson has been cooler than normal and I dont know how the coleus will be.

I also bought Sun Friendly neugini impatiens that are not so hot.The variegated leafed one wilts in the sun and the bright red one looks sad after 2 weeks.

Your containers look wonderful.Nice arrangements of different shapes and sized pots.
