Amaranth is a super grain packed with omega fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and protein. The leaves are edible and used in salads or steamed like spinach. The grain can also be used for animal feed or used as a flour replacement. Amazing in smoothies, baked goods, or even popped like popcorn! The flowers are deep purple and the leaves are a yellow-green color. The plants grow to be around 3-4 feet tall.
Not only is this plant gorgeous, I think it's going to be a great addition to our diet. We're trying to grow more of our own food, and I plan on using this like we use quinoa--as a replacement for rice. I'm also hoping that it encourages pollinators to our garden. I'm so glad I could find it at MI Gardener, because they're one of the few places I trust for seed.
I love growing these in pots. Unfortunately last year I had a horrible outbreak of grasshoppers which destroyed them completely. But I'm ready for another year of beautiful plants.
