My woman bought some of the above in plug form (some normal size, some jumbo). I was tasked with getting them into a tray with compost, which I did. They're now in the garden, but looking very sorry for themselves. Unsure if it's under or overwatering, or whether the nights are proving too cold for them. Any likely causes anyone can suggest, and how to bring them back to ok ?

Actually her house plants are also wilting and going brown, and refuse to buck up. But that's another story.

Twearly probably. If they are in a tray, you could either bring them in to a shed or conservatory, or pop some fleece or bubble wrap round them and protect them from the cold. Until mid May when they can go out into their flowering baskets or containers.

Actually a correction. In the morning light I see that I got it the wrong way around. It's the coleus that are not looking brilliant, the petunias seem fine.
