Amaranthus caudatus

  • Cascading warm pink to dusty coral tassels
  • Dramatic cut flower on long stems
  • Long vase life
  • Edible, nutritious leaves and seeds

The earthy, warm pink pendulous tassels on 125cm plants add drama to the summer – autumn garden. With many side shoots, each plant offers a range of stem sizes for the designer. A cousin to the traditional cascading amaranth ‘Love Lies Bleeding’. ‘Coral Fountain’ is a statement addition in floral arrangements and the back of the herbaceous border.

Amaranth is also a generous, edible plant – the fresh young leaves and mature, nutritional powerhouse seeds. The seeds have been traditionally cooked like porridge, ground into flour and lightly roasted until they “pop” like corn. The nutritional value and heat and drought tolerance of the crop offers global food security.
