Amaranthus cruentus

Not only is this a wonderful mix to cook with, you can experiment with all three varieties to see which ones grow best in your garden. These varieties are drought tolerant, enjoy full sun and will give splendid flowering tops that will load up with edible seeds.
All part of the Amaranth plants are edible, and they can be popped for tiny popcorn.
A most versatile plant, a must have for all edible gardens. Bonus - they are gorgeous as ornamentals!
Homegrown grains continue to be more popular in gardens everywhere. This is a great mix to try! Add grains to your home garden and up your diversity!
Direct sow after the last frost, no deeper than 1/4". Keep evenly moist through germination. To collect the grain, cut the seed heads and hang them to dry after seed begins to form.
