Amaranth, also known as foxtail, is an easy-to-grow flower that adds both height and drama to your garden – perfect for anyone who wants to grow their own cut flowers with a unique character.
Amaranth comes in a range of colours, from deep wine red to lime green, and pairs beautifully with both soft pastels and more vibrant bouquet flowers. The long, cascading flower tassels create a wild, lively look that truly stands out.
Sowing amaranth seeds directly into the ground or starting them indoors in April–May is a great way to get started. They thrive in sunny locations with well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and require very little maintenance – just regular watering and feeding throughout the growing season.
For cut flower growers, amaranth is a real gem. It lasts a long time in the vase and adds a luxurious, unexpected touch to bouquets. The flower tassels can also be dried and used in everlasting arrangements long after the season has ended.
Our amaranth seeds are suitable for both beginners and experienced growers who want to grow cut flowers with that little something extra.
