This plant seems to be doing really well except it’s lost a lot of it’s color?! It gets plenty of light I’m not sure why?

Question

#Coleus

@Stinkylilpothos it could be too much sun. My dad has his all in low sun areas and they stay vibrant. I have one that gets lots of sun and it’s fading.

@Nightshade · Answer

It might just be a natural loss of pigmentation. I’ve had it happen where my purple shamrocks had green on them. Hopefully nothings wrong with it! Heads up though, I don’t honestly know since I’ve never had this happen to the same type of plant. Good luck! ♥️🤗

I just got a Coleus last weekend that looks very similar. Same colors as yours but different pattern.

@Nightshade · Answer

@TJphilobsessed all my coleuses are much more vibrant because they are different types lol

@Marthamaywho92 · Answer

I agree with Kristen, while some plants like my croton need sun to keep their vibrant colors I think this is one that will fade in direct sunlight
