Love Lies Bleeding
Amaranthus caudatus
A spectacular addition to any garden, many parts of these plants - including the leaves and seeds - are edible and are frequently used as a source of food in India and South America. If you want to grow for grain, consider Burgundy Grain Amaranth instead. It will produce more seeds and is easier to harvest. The red colour of the inflorescences is due to the high content of betacyanins, similar to the related species known as "Hopi Red Dye" amaranth. Plant height 120-180cm (4-6').
Matures in 50 days. (open pollinated seeds)
