Rustic Orange Coleus | Coleus scutellarioides ‘Rustic Orange’ | Coleus ‘Rustic Orange’ | Painted Nettle ‘Rustic Orange’
Rustic Orange Coleus is a fast‑growing, heat‑loving foliage plant (grown as an annual or houseplant in cooler climates) prized for its spectacular, serrated leaves that glow in vibrant shades of rusty orange, copper, and warm bronze. This eye-catching selection from the Coleus family is known for its upright, mounding habit, exceptional versatility in both sun and shade, and nonstop colorful display from spring until frost. Its striking foliage creates brilliant contrast and warmth, making it a standout choice for mixed containers, woodland gardens, borders, and bold landscape beds. With its lush form and reliable performance in warm, humid conditions, Rustic Orange offers dramatic texture and continuous color with minimal maintenance.
Growing Rustic Orange Coleus
Light: Full sun to partial shade; highly adaptable, but produces the most vibrant, saturated foliage colors in locations with bright light and protection from the harshest afternoon sun.
Soil: Rich, well‑drained soil; highly adaptable but performs best in fertile, organically rich potting mixtures.
Water: Moderate to high; water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Plants will quickly droop if allowed to dry out completely but recover fast once watered.
Maintenance: Pinching back the growing tips regularly encourages a bushier, more compact shape and prevents the plant from becoming leggy. Pinch off any small, pale flower spikes to direct energy back into the colorful foliage.
Wildlife: Grown primarily for its ornamental foliage; generally deer‑resistant.
Hardiness: Perennial in USDA zones 10–11; grown as an annual or overwintered indoors as a houseplant in cooler regions.
Shipping Info
Rustic Orange Coleus plants are shipped as healthy young starts in 4" nursery pots. Allow 1–2 weeks after arrival for plants to recover from shipping and resume active growth before repotting or planting outdoors.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.7 / 5 from 419 reviews.
Just waiting for when they get big and tall and start producing bananas.
Plant arrived quickly and came in good shape!
Package came delivered just like it said it would I pulled it out it looked good. I put it in some water for about a half hour and put it in my 30 gallon tub and I got three things to go with it.
Banana tree came nice and healthy and ready to go!

Haven’t transplanted yet, but it’s a beautiful plant. We are gifting it to a friend that moved…Friendship Plant is very appropriate!
I love it
Truly tiny is still tiny but healthy!
It seems to be doing well but could have been packed better.
Blossom Dale did a wonderful job with packaging and Sedum Autumn Joy plants arrived in great condition and are thriving. So far so good.
The milkweed is not doing well...
Very healthy cutting. Followed the instructions and let it get acclimated to its new surroundings for a couple of weeks before repotting. Would not hesitate to purchase from this business again 😃
Plants arrived in great condition. This plant has only been in the ground about 10 days and is growing a lot. The plant cage is 12” tall so it’s doing well. I put guards around my new plants for a little while because I have bunnies who love tender young leaves.
Got this for my wife’s birthday. Plan to pot it soon.
I got 2 mystery plants (one indoor and one outdoor). The indoor was a pilea and the outdoor plant was a white blackberry. White blackberry was dramatic, but it’s making a comeback and the pilea is doing great!
Came in well packed and the plant was alive and healthy!
Even though the newest leaf was broken off it seems to be doing well
My little banana arrived happy and healthy!
The plant arrived well packaged with instructions on how to get started. It had been doing really well and has been growing like a weed!
It is just putting roots down now.
Received in great condition, transplanted just before heavy rain and its thriving
Just a little shock put her in a fabric pot on the back porch full sun should be happy thank you for the lovely plant
Fair price good looking plant can’t wait for it to get bigger!
Need to upgrade your packaging. I would suggest taping the plant in place in the cardboard tube on the count that it slid and smashed itself. Luckily, it's a strong plant and should recover. Hoping.for the best.
So Beautiful. Packaged well . Love my little guy.
It’s so cool I love it!!!
She is doing well even after a rough delivery. She is thriving and putting on new growth. Thank you.
The plant arrived after a few delivery reroutes. It came with three leaves two so far are healthy one was dying and has since died. The two remaining leaves appear to be doing well.
After overcoming the initial travel stress. The plants are doing well.
The follow up plants were very good
Customer service here is second to none! Very very happy and already made another purchase. But anyway, I ordered 1 and they sent me 2 beautiful babies! I'm so excited to watch them grow!
This little guy came in perfect. Despite the cat knocking it over and being placed in the soup cup for safer keeping, it’s thriving and happy. Once it’s bigger then it will make its way outdoors.
I like it very much and looking forward to eating some cherries
This is my first year of ordering live plants on line. I live in an apt, but have a nice size patio to do container planting. I'm waking up my green thumb and loving it.
Got a great little house plant for $9.99!!!
I am very happy for all the Butterworth I got extra like usual which was nice I put them all in pots for now I'll do my project later after they get growing thank you
Plant came packaged perfectly. Fast shipping. Can’t wait to see it grow!
I received what I believe is a very healthy plant. Unfortunately, the shipping was very hard on the plant. It is quickly bouncing back. Wish I would have known it was a seedling .
