Coleus Mezmerize mix pack of 28-30 Seeds Imported

Coleus ‘Mezmerize Mix’ (Solenostemon blumei) is a premium foliage annual bred for bold colour, extreme heat and sun tolerance, and a long season of ornamental performance. Standing 40–50 cm tall with a bushy, upright habit, this Syngenta Flowers series delivers a kaleidoscope of leaf patterns — from chocolate and rusty red to lime green and mosaic multicolour — with the rare ability to hold vivid colour even in full sun without leaf scorch or curling.

Full Product Description

Coleus ‘Mezmerize Mix’ is not your grandmother’s shade-garden coleus. This modern series — developed by Syngenta Flowers and introduced from 2023 onwards — represents a meaningful step forward in coleus breeding: plants that perform as intensely in a south-facing sun border as they do in a dappled shade planting scheme.

Where traditional coleus cultivars bleach, burn, or curl their leaves when exposed to intense midday sun, the Mezmerize series was specifically bred to resist all three. The result is a plant that opens up planting locations previously off-limits to coleus, including mixed sunny borders, exposed patio containers, and high-footfall municipal landscapes where both durability and visual impact are non-negotiable.

What Makes Mezmerize Different — A Series Worth Understanding

Most gardeners are familiar with coleus as a shade-tolerant foliage plant. The Mezmerize series changes that assumption in three important ways:

1. True sun performance, not just sun tolerance. Many coleus cultivars are marketed as “sun-tolerant” but underperform in exposed, hot conditions — leaves curl, colours fade to washed-out pastels, or plant vigour drops sharply. Mezmerize was trialled and developed specifically for extreme heat and sun conditions. Leaf structure and pigmentation remain strong even in low-humidity environments where lesser varieties would show stress within days.

2. Late flowering habit. Coleus plants that flower early redirect energy from foliage production to seed-setting, causing the plant to become leggy and the leaf display to deteriorate. Mezmerize’s deliberately delayed flowering means the foliage — your reason for growing it — stays the star of the show from planting through to first frost.

3. Strong branching and vigour. The Mezmerize series produces a well-branched, upright canopy with consistent lateral growth. This makes it well-suited to large patio containers and landscape mass plantings where you need plants that fill their space reliably without becoming bare at the base.

Colours in the Mix

The Mezmerize Mix brings together the standout performers from across the series. Named varieties within the mix typically include:

• Mezmerize Rusty Red — warm terracotta-red leaves with deep central markings; excellent contrast plant
• Mezmerize Lime Green — vivid chartreuse foliage; exceptional as a foil for deep-coloured companions
• Mezmerize Chocolate / Chocolate Rose — rich dark brown tones with rose-pink accents; dramatic and sophisticated
• Mezmerize Mosaic — complex multi-tone pattern; true-to-type variegation in green, cream, and pink

As a mix, expect variation between individual plants — this is a characteristic feature, not a flaw. No two plants will be identical, which creates a naturalistic, layered planting effect.
