This selection of love-lies-bleeding has striking tassel-like seed heads for late summer and autumn. They're a deep magenta-red which retains a lot of its intensity when dried. Amaranth is a big sturdy plant, growing up to 1.5m tall - you might need to stake it.
Sow: March-May undercover
Plant: 4 weeks after sowing
Harvest: Expect flowers July-Sept. Pick stems when tassels begin to extend. Stem length of 1m.
Vase: Strip foliage, expect 7 day vase life. To dry, strip off foliage, tie in a bunch and either leave in a bucket to dry or hang upside down. Keep out of direct sunlight.
