Coleus Rainbow Mix is extremely popular, and it includes a complete color range, from green-yellow to bronze, and red. The seeds also can be grown for an excellent house plant which will add color to those dreary winter days.
Originating in Africa and Indonesia, these exotic-looking plants perform well as shade garden plants, in pots and containers, and in hanging baskets. They need a partially shady setting and prefer moist, rich soil, with good drainage.

yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
