  • Patent number: PP33343
    Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Plectranthus scutellarioides (Coleus) named ‘UF17-128-7’, selected for having novel color patterning with excellent color stability and field performance. It is a vigorous well-branched plant with a spreading form, with leaves having striking magenta tones in their centers, and well defined maroon netted venation. Because of this color combination, ‘UF17-128-7’ is novel, and has no direct comparison in the industry. It has consistent vigor, making it a plant suitable for efficient production in both small and large containers. It is a non-flowering genotype and performs well in both sun and shade, maintaining good consistent color and habit late into the summer garden season.

  • Patent number: PP33344
    Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Plectranthus scutellarioides (coleus) named ‘UF17-11-5’, primarily selected for its novel and contrasting yellow-green leaf color with distinct magenta veins and pink accents. This vigorous plant maintains its foliage late into the Fall season until frost, and has very stable leaf color in both sun and shade. Due to its striking color combination and vigorous long-lasting landscape features, this plant will likely succeed when promoted and grown in landscapes as a specimen annual plant filling a large amount of space with color in a very short period of time.

  • Patent number: PP33345
    Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Plectranthus scutellarioides (coleus) named ‘UF15-4-43’, selected for its highly desirable combination of traits: bi-colored crimson and chartreuse foliage with superior stability in both sun and shade; large leaves with extremely uniform lance shape across the plant throughout development, and the leaves are larger than most plants of this leaf type; excellent lateral branching, thus providing ample vegetative propagules for producers; and vigorous spreading habit, growing more horizontal than vertical, which allows it to fill space with vibrant color very quickly in summer gardens. This plant has not been observed to produce flowers in any trial to date, thus it is desirable for long-season performance in the landscape. It is uniform through all stages of production and it has long season performance as an annual plant in the landscape until first signs of frost in late Fall.

  • Patent number: PP33533
    Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Plectranthus scutellarioides (coleus) named ‘UF18-97-2’, selected for its excellent vigor, lateral branching, uniform overall habit, and intense crimson color in sun and shade. The new coleus cultivar ‘UF18-97-2’ was selected because it has superb vigor with brilliant crimson colored leaves with well-defined chartreuse margins. It does not produce flowers, so leaf abscission is minimized late in the landscape season. What makes it a rare red foliage genotype is that it is extremely vigorous and can easily grow three feet tall and five feet wide in the landscape while maintaining intense deep red color in both sun and shade.

The novel leaves have superior color stability in both sun and shade conditions, and it has a spreading and compact form and mounded habit. The leaf shape of ‘UF17-109-9’ is highly elongated compared to most Coleus, and the leaf shape is extremely uniform across the plant throughout development. It has excellent lateral branching, thus providing ample vegetative propagules for producers. Because of its uniformity through all stages of production and consistent landscape performance, it has long season performance as an annual plant in the landscape until the first signs of frost in late Fall.

  • Patent number: PP34041
    Abstract: ‘UF17-52-25’ is a new Coleus plant, selected for having a combination of desirable traits that make it well-suited for good performance as an annual plant in the summer landscape. ‘UF17-52-25’ has foliage that is consistent burnt orange with pink mid-veins (in older leaves), surrounded by well-defined light green leaf margins and leaf undersides. This combination of colors and patterns makes it eye-catching. ‘UF17-52-25’ is exceptional because it maintains these colors in a broad range of environmental conditions, and it has received superior ratings in both our sun and shade trials. It is upright in growth habit, but it is more highly branched and uniform in shape than most ruffled-leaf-type plants that have been produced to date. This allows the plant to have high utility for use in any part of the garden landscape.

  • Patent number: PP34042
    Abstract: ‘UF17-52-13’ is a new Coleus plant, selected because it has a highly desirable combination of novel traits. It has leaves colored dark maroon with chartreuse margins and with superior stability in both sun and shade. The highly lobed shape of the large leaves is extremely uniform across the plant throughout development, and the leaves are larger than most plants of this leaf type. It has excellent lateral branching, thus providing ample vegetative propagules for producers. It has a vigorous spreading form, growing more horizontal than vertical, which allows it to fill space with vibrant color very quickly in summer gardens. This plant has not been observed to produce flowers in any trial to date, thus it is desirable for long-season performance in the landscape. This trait is particularly valuable for large-scale commercial landscape plantings.
