Chartreuse Joseph's Coat is an compact evergreen annual grown for its pointed foliage that is bright chartreuse with bright yellow where the sun hits it. Best color in full sun and rich, consistently moist well-drained soils in cooler regions; warmer regions do best with afternoon shade to prevent color bleaching. May revert back to solid green.
