Vibrant and sun-loving, Sweet Paprika Premium Sun Coleus lights up the garden with rich red-orange foliage edged in golden lime. Each leaf looks brushed with spice, warm, glowing tones that add depth and contrast to beds, borders, and containers. The Premium Sun series was bred for durability, thriving in full sun to partial shade without fading, scorching, or losing color intensity.
 
Unlike traditional coleus that prefer shade, Sweet Paprika keeps its color even in bright light and summer heat. The plants are uniform and compact, forming dense, mounded foliage with minimal maintenance. Perfect for mixed planters, patio pots, or mass plantings that need long-lasting color from spring through fall.
