This Amaranth, sister to Love
Lies Bleeding and Coral
Fountain, hangs its ropy
blooms in pale green. Subtle
coloring and dramatic form
combine here to make a
memorable presence whether
in garden or vase. Great for
an antique cottage look with
flowers like Queen Lime Zinnia
– or to set off deep maroons
like Opopeo.
Seeds are edible, but not produced in large enough quantities to be prime candidates for eating. For high seed production - not to mention tall ornamental flower spikes - please see Copperhead Amaranth, Opopeo Amaranth, and Rio San Lorenzo in the Grains section.
