Some coleus want full shade, a few want nearly full sun. Try to identify which one you have and what light it wants. So far, the one I know of that definetly wants lots of sun, is 'Sedona' (the red/orange one in the picture). It's beautiful. I'd protect it from midday sun if you have a lot of 90 degree or higher days. Mine got about 6 hours of sun a day. Also 'freckles' wants a lot of sun, but protection from the hottest. on the other hand 'caroom' wants full shade.
