These are so cool! Never seen them anywhere around here. Where did you get them, if you don't mind my asking.

@maldavis I wish I could remember where I got my first plant from. It probably came from someone selling a plant at the local garden club. I wish I could find some more of the varieties in this 'Under the Sea' range. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/foliage/coleus/under-the-sea-coleus.htm

Hi! I'm updating a big coleus archive and I must say that the looks of this UTS - Bonefish doesn't look at all as the original. Have you checked with the developer if this really is Bonefish? https://research-groups.usask.ca/fruit/ornamentalcrops/coleus.php

Coleus tucked under the Spider Lily (Hymenocallis littoralus) which gave it a bit of protection from the harsh Summer sun. #foliagefriday #coleus #coleus-bonefish

Seasonal change of colours of this Coleus. Vibrant colours of Summer on left; cooler Autumn colours on right. Winter will bring dark brown. This is a hardy plant and winters well in subtropics. I can see some of my Coleus are dying back and will not survive Winter so I will take some cuttings and find a protected sunny spot for them until Spring (Sept). #foliagefriday #coleus #coleus-bonefish

Coleus 'Bone Fish'. Colouring up nicely in the warmer weather. As well as the most stunning Coleus, it is the hardiest, growing on sturdy, long stems, full of offshoots for cuttings. In Winter the colours are deep purple and green before turning vibrant pinks in Spring. Given a bit of Summer heat protection, this plant is a winner in subtropics and drought. #coleus #coleus-bonefish #foliagefriday

Coleus "Bonefish'. Another Coleus starting to show its true colours as the weather warms up. Such a hardy one and everyone's favourite. Has a bit of a slow down and loss of colour in Winter. Then grows to 2 metres and is constantly being pruned. Think I will fill every gap in the garden with cuttings when I return from India (heading out Saturday, returning early November). #coleus #coleus-bonefish

@anges @kez001uk @alan1111 @jeatacake Thank you. It does have brilliant colours with unusual leaves. One of the 'Under the Sea' range. It is also a very vigorous grower with strong stems producing many offsets. Wish you were closer so I could share with you. I cannot remember where I got it from, maybe a garden club, but I have not seen it in the nurseries.

Two Coleus: 'Bone Fish' and 'Coral Ruffles' with Heuchera: 'Black Taffeta'. Grouping, trying out the look for my pink colour garden. Where once was lawn will soon be a pretty little garden of shades of pink. #coleus-coralruffles #coleus-bonefish #coleus #heuchera-blacktaffeta #shadesofpink
