Coleus scutellarioides 'Stained Glassworks Spacecake' is a colourful coleus with serrated leaves marked in burgundy, pink, cream, lime and green. The pattern varies across each blade, while the plant keeps an upright, bushy habit on soft branching stems. Give it bright filtered light, warmth and evenly moist substrate with good drainage. Regular tip pinching supports dense growth, and flower spike removal helps maintain a foliage-led shape. Tender leaves and a relatively shallow root system make steady watering especially important during active growth. Keep the plant away from pets likely to chew the foliage.
