A heat- and drought-tolerant green in spectacular splashes of color! Leaf amaranth is popular in Asia, eaten raw, stir-fried, or steamed. This is by far the most tender and sweetest amaranth for edible greens, making for a vibrant and delicious salad. The young leaves are a perfect spinach substitute; the intricately colored leaves are juicy and succulent. This is the go-to “green” for mid-summer when all others have bolted; harvested just 30-40 days from sowing. Minimum Seed Count: 100
Good to start from seed in these months:
North Florida: April-August
Central Florida: March-September
South Florida: February-October

Open Pollinated Heirloom Seeds Selected To Thrive
This is a curated collection of seeds I have found to grow well in Florida over the years. It is designed to take the overwhelm and thought process out of figuring out which varieties to select that will actually grow well here.
Some of the seed is saved from myself and other small local growers for harder to source varieties that you can't find online.
The majority of the seed varieties will come from dedicated seed supply companies like Working Food or Southern Exposure Seed Exchange to keep up with demand. We always prioritize localized seed sources which have a sustainable and equitable business model.
