I took the pictures of this coleus plants which were flowering when I went for a meeting in a school in Ipoh on Monday. This is a very popular ornamental plant grown at homes and also in public places. There are a few different hybrids of the Coleus. I think the Malay name for it is Ati-ati.

Common name: Coleus

Genus: Solenostemon
