You will want to prune your coleus plants by removing any stem at the point where two stems or two leaves are growing from it. You can either pinch them back or cut them with pruners. By doing so, your coleus will grow two new branches from that point on the stem to give it a bushy appearance instead of having those stems simply grow straight up. Depending on the size of your plant, you can be aggressive when pinching it back to stimulate lots of new growth.
