300 Organic Prince's Feather Amaranth Seeds [approx]
Name: Amaranth: Prince's Feather
Latin Name: Amaranthus hypochondriacus x powelli
Plant Type: Annual
Plant Height: 90-110 cm
Description: Prince’s Feather Amaranth is a striking annual with tall, upright spikes of crimson-red flowers. Perfect for adding dramatic colour to borders or cutting gardens, it thrives in sunny, well-drained spots and flowers from summer to autumn. The young leaves and the seeds it produces are edible.
Seed Origin: Holland
Sowing: March to May
Flowering: July to September
How To Grow Amaranth From Seed: Sow Prince’s Feather amaranth seeds indoors from March to April or direct sow outdoors after the last frost in May, as seeds need warmth to germinate.
Sow thinly on the soil surface and press gently. Light aids germination, so do not cover the seeds with soil. Keep soil moist until seedlings emerge, usually in 7–14 days. When large enough to handle, thin or transplant to 30–45 cm apart in a sunny, well-drained spot.
Amaranth thrives in fertile soil and benefits from regular watering during dry periods. Tall plants may need staking in exposed sites. Deadhead faded blooms to prolong flowering or leave them to produce seed for birds and self-seeding.
