Autumn Touch Amaranth Seeds

Amaranth make great fillers for bouquets and landscapes, bloom prolifically, and add eye-catching, feathery texture and dimension to any floral display.

Giant, fluffy, feather plumes (up to 2 ft!) sit atop large, strong, green leaves and stalks. Their color ranges from lime green, to yellow, orange, red and brown. Great for the backdrop of your garden. The autumnal color show arrives just in time, at the end of summer until it snows.
