An eye-catching tender perennial with bright, lime-green foliage. Highly effective when grown as a group, Coleus ‘Lime Delight’ is a strong performer throughout summer. Think of it as a golden-coloured scene setter for other summer stars such as Salvia ‘Amistad’ to take centre stage.
Plant out after all risk of frost has passed. Pinch out young shoots regularly to maintain foliage colour and a compact shape. Remove emerging flower spikes to maintain bushy habit. If growing in pots, move indoors in autumn to overwinter.
