Amaranth Plants

Amaranth plants are an exceptional addition to any garden, known for their striking appearance and nutritional value. These plants produce vibrant, colorful plumes and nutrient-dense leaves and seeds that are perfect for a variety of culinary uses. Easy to grow and adaptable, amaranth plants are ideal for gardeners of all skill levels, providing both ornamental beauty and a nutritious harvest throughout the season.

Amaranth is a powerhouse of nutrition, rich in protein, fiber, iron, magnesium, and calcium. It supports overall health, aids in digestion, and provides sustained energy. The leaves can be eaten like spinach, while the seeds serve as a gluten-free grain alternative.

When planning your garden, consider how many amaranth plants you'll need. For fresh eating of leaves, plan on 2-3 plants per person in your household. This should provide enough leaves for regular consumption throughout the growing season. If you're interested in harvesting amaranth grain for preserving, increase this to 10-15 plants per person. This additional yield will allow you to collect and store amaranth seeds for use during the off-season.
