It worked the pic I posted I had done several years ago. It was one of those lay on its side in the garden, A pot made to look like a pot that fell over. I no longer have it because someone kept sitting it up because they thought the pot had fell over. Even though the side was flat vs a flat bottom. The dumb lawn service kept sitting it up and it fell off the rock wall and broke.
The reason it worked is....
- Soil is leaner than what I would use for Semp. The coleus is not permanent so I used the preferred soil for Semps which slowed the growth of the Coleus.
- The lighting is different there was a little more sun than the coleus would normally receive.
- Type of coleus I used a spiller coleus.
