1244 Coleus, Giant Rainbow 
Mixed 
Cole US—Flame Nettle 
Highly decorative plant for pot cul- 
ture indoors, and for making beds, 
borders or edgings to taller plants out- 
doors. Its brilliantly colored foliage 
makes it also valuable for window 
boxes and cemetery plantings. Coleus 
develops its best color when exposed 
to the full sunlight. Few plants make 
quicker growth. 20 in. 
1244 Giant Rainbow Mixed Un- 
tiring efforts on our part to still further 
improve the foremost strain of coleus 
that can be had —Maule’s Giant Rain- 
bow Mixture—have been crowned 
with unbounded success, and we are 
justly proud of it. The remarkable 
color combinations and richness of 
colors in the large leaves are mag- 
nificent. We consider our strain as 
perfect as can be.
