When the International Coleus was founded several years ago, we immediately became devoted to cataloging not only new cultivars but fully studying the older material. Today we have over 1584 different named cultivars on file. This volume is Part I of the our new Consolidated Cultivar Reference, covering both detailed descriptions, histories, identification tips, and large (1000-1250 pixel wide) high-resolution digital images. Part I covers cultivars A to ) and covers 418 pages. We also have more scanned nursery catalogs from the past to document the history of the old or heirloom clones. Hundreds of hours of society member time was required to produce each volume. Sold in two parts or volumes (Part II not included here), this massive Coleus manual covers 628 8x12 in. PDF pages of content with literally hundreds of images. This is by far the most complete and large guide to Coleus cultivars ever compiled.

This is the 2017 revision and supersedes all previous volumes in this series. More than 1600 cultivars of Coleus blumei, Coleus rehneltianus, and the hybrid Coleus x hybridus have been named since the middle of the 19th century. The International Coleus Society took up the cataloging and registration of all these cultivars when we started in 2013 using the existing files of the New Ornamentals Society and our numerous expert members. This volume provides descriptions to more about 95% of the cultivars beginning with the letter A and ending in F and includes screen-wide high-resolution digital images of modern cultivars, color plates from old catalogs, and scans of other nursery listings back to 1851 and including some 2017 introductions. This 224 page volume is just the beginning in our never ending goal to understand the genus Coleus and document it's history in gardens. Hundreds of hours of study, pouring over old catalogs, literature, garden records, patents, cultivar release notifces, and the memories of modern Coleus experts went into this presentation. Only cultivars from A to F are included. Cultivars of G to Z will be offered as separate volumes in the future.
