ColorBlaze® 'Keystone Kopper®' Coleus

ColorBlaze® ‘Keystone Kopper®’ is a foliage coleus valued for copper and rust tones that hold their color in sun or shade. Its colorful leaves suit mixed containers and warm-season beds where a leafy accent is wanted. ## Foliage and placement The [Proven Winners ColorBlaze tip sheet](https://www.provenwinners.com/sites/provenwinners.com/files/pdf/sell-sheets/ColorBlazeTipSheet-12.pdf) describes the series as late flowering, season-long in form, and usable in sun or shade. A [Proven Winners feature](https://www.greenhousegrower.com/sponsored/shade-plants-from-proven-winners/) identifies Keystone Kopper for rich rust coloration in sun or shade. Mature size estimates differ among references; the existing catalog dimensions are retained rather than choosing an unsupported point. ## Growing conditions Use fertile, evenly moist, well-drained soil in a container or seasonal bed. Light affects foliage intensity, and coleus cultivars can vary in how much direct sun they tolerate, so acclimate plants gradually and watch for midday wilt. Remove flower spikes if foliage display is the priority. ## Maintenance Pinch growing tips as needed to encourage branching. Water when the soil surface begins to dry, and protect this tender warm-season plant from frost.
