Amaranth with edible leaves and gigantic flowers that form blooms that resemble and elephants trunk. Really pretty for cut flowers but also some of the biggest blooms for amaranth so its a stand out choice if you are looking to save the seeds for grain. Attracts loads of beneficial insects over the summer months. Need light for seeds to germinate so surface sow outdoors in warm weather. Strip pest eaten leaves off and it will flush new growth. Also handles being cut back well.
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.
