Hmm, I can't seem to find my picture of 'giant fantasy'. I went to Rosy Dawn and they have it but it looks different. Maybe mine is something different. Also I see they say it is a large plant. Mine never got over 12 in high. Be aware that the pictures on commercial sights might not look like the plant when you grow it though. They have undoubtedly taken a most beautiful section of the plant, in it's prime under best light, and might have touched up the photo after that. Of course, one of the nice things about coleus is that the same plant will look quite different depending on time, location, temperature, etc. Many of them look quite different in the winter in the house, than in the summer outside. Here is one that's pretty consistant looking year around. It's 'city lights'. It gets big, but as with any, you can keep cutting it back.
