About this seed
Why gardeners choose this variety
Grain amaranth belongs to the food-crop history of the Americas, where selected amaranths were grown for their small seeds. It is a pseudocereal rather than a grass, showing that a grain-like kitchen role can come from a very different plant family. The branching flower and seed heads also make the crop visually distinctive.
Grow it for observing the progression from leafy plants to mature seed production in an appropriate warm-season plot. Harvested grain can be used in suitable cooked preparations after proper cleaning and handling.
