​ 五色草造型 锦紫苏，彩叶草、洋紫苏、五色草.锦紫苏为多年生草本植物,叶色娇艳多变，是目前常见的室内观叶植物. 常用扦插繁殖。5－6月选取色彩鲜艳的嫩枝扦插，插条长10厘米，插后4－5天生根，1周后可移入小盆。 栽培:盆栽土壤需疏松、肥沃。夏季高温期,除浇水外,注意叶面喷水。生长期每半月施肥1次。 为了长时间观叶，开花时，最好将花去掉，否则，叶的生长会受影响。如植株生长过高,应加以截顶,促使基部分枝。对生长旺盛的植株进行摘心,保持优良株态。(pictrues taken today in downtown) English: Coleus blumei Grown indoors you do need to spend a little time maintaining Coleus and this is really the only negative that springs to mind. Because it grows quite fast the plant gets leggy and sparse looking quickly so you need to pinch out growth tips every now and again to encourage it to stay compact and bushy. Additionally you must pinch out any flowers that start to form, they aren't overly attractive anyway but if you allow them to fully bloom and set seed the entire plant will normally die afterwards.
