ColorBlaze® Chocolate Drop Coleus | Proven Winners®

Deep cocoa foliage edged in bright lime green.

ColorBlaze® Chocolate Drop Coleus is a foliage-focused annual that delivers rich, high-contrast color in containers, hanging baskets, and garden beds from spring through frost.

What You'll Use It For

Darker color that adds depth and contrast.

• Spilling over containers with rich, trailing foliage
• Anchoring bright color combos with deeper tones
• Adding contrast to green-heavy plantings
• Filling space with dense, cascading coverage
• Pairing with pinks, yellows, and whites for balance

Why Lazy Leaf Loves It

This holds its color in both sun and shade, so placement stays flexible. The trailing habit fills in quickly and creates a dense layer instead of thin growth. The darker tones help balance brighter plants, making it useful in mixed containers where contrast matters.
