Annual. Blooms summer to early fall. 3' - 4' tall and 2' wide. Full sun.
Crimson tassels cascade to the ground from this exotic, showy, bushy plant. Dramatic, tropical, romantic, and old-fashioned all describe Love Lies Bleeding! Popular in colonial American and Victorian English gardens, this plant has a history as long and colorful as its reddish-purple tassels. Spectacular for the back of the border, or as a focal point. Tassels can reach 18" and last for many weeks. Excellent for fresh or dried flower arrangements. This old time Amaranth has also been called Tassel Flower, Prince's Feather, and Red Cockscomb. For the longest-lasting showiest tassels, fertilize and water regularly during drought periods. Tall plants may require staking. "Amaranthus" comes from the Greek word meaning "unfading."
OUTDOORS: Sow in spring after average last day of frost.
INDOORS: Sow 6-8 weeks before last frost.
