Coral Fountain is a sister of a different color – same size and habit as Love Lies Bleeding and Emerald Tassels, but with long ropy blooms in a soft dusky rose. Its ropes continue to grow longer all summer and can easily reach the ground. Astonishing and long-lasting as a floral centerpiece. Side shoot blooms are great in bouquets too.
As with all amaranths, both young leaves and mature seeds are edible and super-nutritious. For amaranths grown primarily for their plentiful seed, please see Opopeo, Copperhead, and Rio San Lorenzo in the Grains section. For an amaranth grown primarily for young leaves, please see Calaloo under Greens.
