Beautiful Amaranth

Bought these seeds from a friend that was leaving the country. This is my 3rd season and they are sprouting all over the yard! I cut flower heads off and left them I places I wanted them to grow and now I'm thinning like crazy, but they also are just popping up all over. I hoped it would be forage, but no one is eating it.

Live everything this community does. For me it has been a honer and a privalage .

Amaranth, aka calaloo (Jamaica) or chibuika (Congo)

It’s a wonderful plant and it grows like crazy. Yes the leaves are great for a mess of greens or even the youngest ones in salad. But when it makes seeds, they go everywhere and pretty soon you will have an amaranth forest.

I ordered, they delivered.

Now I’m waiting till spring that my gardening will match their proficiency.
