Nature in my City – Part 7 // @SkinnyGirl // 100% Power Up / #Club5050
Coleos, are perennial plants native to Africa and tropical Asia. In current classifications they constitute a taxonomic genus, the genus Solenostemon.
They have been selected for the color and marked contrasts of their variegated leaves, which can be green, pink, yellow, brown and red. They are grown mainly as ornamentals. They tolerate heat although they prefer a shady location in subtropical areas.
Although most of these plants are grown for garden use, they are recommended for experimentation, thanks to their easy cultivation and rapid growth. Among the many experiments that can be done with this plant are: making grafts with it and studying its colorful cells.
