About these seeds
Amaranth is three crops in one — the leaves are like a milder spinach, the seeds are an ancient grain, and the dramatic red flower plumes look amazing in the back of a bed. Direct-sow after the last frost, water occasionally, and let it grow. It thrives in heat where most leafy greens give up.
