coleus

Question

Does coleus come back the next year, if planted outside?

Answer 1

No, these plants are annuals. You can bring coleus indoors for overwintering (treating like a houseplant) but many people simply choose to take cuttings and keep them over winter instead to keep them for planting next season.
