FlameThrower® Salsa Verde Coleus (Coleus scutellarioides ‘FlameThrower® Salsa Verde’)

FlameThrower® Salsa Verde Coleus (Coleus scutellarioides ‘FlameThrower® Salsa Verde’) is a vibrant foliage plant prized for its unique blend of chartreuse, lime green, burgundy, and deep red tones. This striking coleus delivers season-long colour without relying on flowers, making it an outstanding choice for containers, landscape beds, borders, and mixed planters.

The deeply serrated leaves showcase bright lime-green centres accented by rich burgundy veining and darker margins, creating a colourful, layered appearance that stands out in both sun and shade gardens. The dramatic foliage provides exceptional contrast when paired with flowering annuals, tropical plants, ornamental grasses, and other colourful foliage selections.

Part of the popular FlameThrower® series, Salsa Verde develops a compact, well-branched habit that remains dense and attractive throughout the growing season. Its vibrant foliage colour intensifies as plants mature, providing continuous visual interest from spring until frost. The plant works beautifully as a focal point in containers or as a colourful accent in landscape plantings.

In Alberta, FlameThrower® Salsa Verde performs exceptionally well as a summer annual, providing reliable foliage colour and garden impact from planting time until frost.
