Red Coleus

Many times we overlook the obvious.  Coleus are used a lot as filler plants.  They come in many colors of red/pink/yellow and green.  But a close up look shows the beauty of the ruffled leaves.

Pink 'n Green

I am always amazed at the wonderful creations Mother Nature provides for us. Unique shapes, unusual colors, vibrant patterns. I guess that's one of the reasons I'm an artist. I enjoy replicating nature's palette. These coleus were sitting at the nursery in Home Depot today. Like I've said before. Always have your camera handy, you never know when a great shot is going to pop up. And yes, they're slightly out of focus. But beautiful none the less.
