1. Coleus 

The first one on our list is Coleus. This is a plant that has a delightful texture with a wide range of pretty colors that will give life to any garden. Given the fact that it has a compact height, Coleus is great as a container plant.

Back in the day, this plant loved to be outside of the sunlight, but times have changed, and newer varieties grew to love showing off their beautiful colors in the sun.

From pinks, yellow, and vibrant shades of red, to plenty of luminous tones, these plants will keep your garden colorful, bright, and summery every season of the year.

    Thanks … however so many are candy for the deer herd that visits my garden! So far, they haven’t consumed the nine bark. The rest are down to nubbins. Any other suggestions???
