Rustic Orange Coleus

Rustic Orange is an upright foliage coleus with serrated orange leaves edged in chartreuse. Growers list it at about 18–24 inches tall and 15–18 inches wide, a compact size for seasonal color near paths, entries, or mixed plantings. ## Foliage and placement The [Premier Growers profile](https://premiergrowersinc.com/product/coleus-rustic-orange/) describes orange leaves with distinctive chartreuse margins and gives a spread of 15–18 inches. A [garden-center listing](https://www.kingsgardencenter.com/Plant-Name/Solenostemon-scutellarioides-Rustic-Orange-Coleus) describes copper-orange foliage with lighter gold edges and a height of 18–24 inches. The current numeric dimensions remain within these published ranges; display labels are aligned to them. ## Growing conditions This cultivar is described as sun-tolerant by Kings Garden Center, while Premier Growers lists partial to full shade. Use filtered light where afternoon sun is intense, then allow room for its listed spread. Coleus is tender in frost-prone regions and can be used in seasonal beds or containers. ## Maintenance NC State describes the species as low maintenance and lists USDA zones 10a–11b. In colder gardens, move containers to shelter or replace plants after frost; keep the foliage visible by trimming only stems that disrupt the plant’s outline.
