About ColorBlaze Torchlight Coleus

ColorBlaze Torchlight is an upright coleus with a vivid mix of fuchsia, maroon-purple, and green foliage. Its tall, branched form creates a strong vertical accent in summer containers and garden beds. ## Appearance Proven Winners lists Torchlight at 24–40 inches tall and 18–36 inches wide, with fuchsia, maroon-purple, and green tricolor leaves. The breeder describes it as upright and suitable for sun or shade. [Cultivar profile](https://www.provenwinners.com/p/11073) ## Growing conditions Torchlight is heat tolerant and grows in a range of light conditions. In hot climates, shade during the most intense afternoon sun can help protect foliage. Keep plants evenly watered, especially in pots. [Coleus growing guide](https://www.provenwinners.com/how-plant/coleus) ## Uses The height makes it useful as a thriller in a large container or as an upright foliage accent in borders. Its layered colors pair well with solid green or silver-leaved plants. ## Maintenance Pinch young growth to encourage branching, and trim to control size. Flower spikes can be removed when they appear if you want foliage to remain the focus.
