Foliage plants such as coleus add a wonderful splash of color without having to worry about blooms but if the size of coleus is too large, then Joseph’s coat or alternanthera may be the perfect option. Available in almost the same range of colors as coleus and just as easy to grow and native to Central and South America, Joseph’s coat also comes in a wide array of sizes with a variety of leaf shapes, some with unique crinkled foliage and others with multicolored leaves. No matter the color or texture, all types of Joseph's coats are easy to grow and work perfectly in beds, containers and borders.
To get the most out of their beautiful colors, plant them in the full sun. Too much shade will mute the leaves colors. Joseph’s coat require very little maintenance. Place them in well-drained soil when planting but they so not like standing water. They prefer consistent moisture since once they are dry, Joseph’s coat is very quick to wilt but will spring right back up once they receive some water.
