2A Daily News – Thursday, June 30, 2011 Community people&events Coleus hybrid explosion By LORNA BONHAM Coleus is another flower that is exploding with different and improved qualities. Leaf size, colors, shapes and frills have changed in the Coleus world but, Coleus are still durable and easy to grow. No, it is not too late to plant Coleus. Considered by many to be an annual, the Coleus is actually a tender perenni- al. As a tender perennial, they will suc- cumb to the first frost outdoors but indoors they will do nicely on the win- dowsill. This can provide great starts for next spring. Most Coleus should be grown in partial shade outside or bright indirect light inside. Many will survive full sun but their leaf color is greatly enhanced in the shade.

Setting it straight •A story about the homeless on Wednesday’s front page misspelled the name of the Tehama Coun- ty Chief Probation Officer. The correct spelling is Richard Muench. • In the article “County bans marijuana dispen- sary zoning,” it indicated that Supervisor George Russell had voted against the ordinance to ban med- ical marijuana dispensaries. In fact, Russell voted to adopt a ban ordinance in a unanimous board vote. –––––––– It is the policy of the Daily News to correct as quickly as possible all errors in fact that have been published in the newspaper.

The new ‘Kong’ series has leaves that can be eight to twelve inches in diameter. Large enough to cover a dinner plate. It has brilliant colors of red, rose, scarlet, and salmon surrounded by different pat- terns and shades of green and yellow. It will also grow 18 to 22 inches tall, great for the middle of a flower bed or the tall feature of a container planting. The ‘Peter’s Wonder’ series has a extremely frilly foliage almost like cabbage with cream veins running through the bright green, yellow, violet and pink colors, and while not as large as the ‘Kong’ series, it is still quite large, up to 18 inches tall The ‘Giant Exhibition’ series includes ‘Limelight’ which has vibrant lime green leaves, ‘Palisandra’ which has velvety black purple leaves and ‘Copper Queen’ with bronzy-rust leaves. The leaves in this series are 6 to 7 inches long and 4 inches wide with height about 15 inches. All Coleus need to be regularly pinched back. By gently removing the terminal bud of each shoot when it reaches three or four inches in length, side branching is encouraged and more beautiful foliage is produced. Pinching will prevent flowering but the flower is insignificant and improved branching of the leaves, the real show, is the ben- efit. If you want to look up Coleus in the Western Garden Book or another refer- ence book you will need the botanical name which is Solenostemon scutel- laroides. Common names in addition to Coleus, include Flame Nettle, Paint- ed Nettle, Painted Leaf or Poor Man’s Croton. Can you image creating a container planting with a combination of these beautiful Coleus? Red Bluff Garden Club meetings are open to the public. The next regular meeting is August 30. No meeting is held in July. See the Web page at www.redbluffgardenclub.com or call 527-4578 or 824-5661 for more infor- mation.
