Elephant Head Amaranth

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.
