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.

Obviously, have not planted yet, so don't know how they will do, but arrived safely and look good. Thanks.
