    I bought this plant at a nursery. I was told it is a Coleus. Would appreciate if someone could tell what kind of coleus this is.
    Also whether this is a shade loving plant because I kept it in the sun and it has completely burned. Any tips on how I can revive it?
    Thanks!

    It does look dry. I would trim it back pretty aggressively, water regularly but do not keep it soggy, and see if it shows signs of new growth.

    As for the name, it is likely a hybrid of some sort.
