A rich blend of color and contrast, Mesmerize Chocolate Rose Coleus unfurls deep cocoa-brown leaves brushed with glowing rose centers. Each leaf seems kissed by warm light, the soft rosy undertones radiating through the dark velvety foliage. The result is an irresistibly lush display that brings warmth and depth to containers, garden beds, and shaded patios.
 
Part of the premium Mesmerize series, this variety was bred for sun tolerance, compact growth, and lasting color, even through summer heat. The plants stay neatly mounded and vibrant from spring until frost, making them ideal for bright borders, mixed planters, or as a standalone accent in a decorative pot.
