Amaranthus cruentus Hot Biscuits
Amaranthus cruentus Hot Biscuits
SALE - Year old seeds
I’m a huge fan of amaranthus and had to add the upright Hot Biscuits to the collection as its a must grow. It has brown tassels. Can grow up to 1.2m in height. I find it a lot shorter outside than in a polytunnel.
Plant Type: Half Hardy Annual (susceptible to frost)
Height: 30cm – 100m
When to sow: Feb to April indoors, May to July outdoors.
Flowers : May to October
How to grow: Sow thinly in seed trays approx. 6-8 weeks before last frost date, in a warm and light area as they need heat to germinate. Keep watering and pot on when they outgrow the seed trays. They will grow faster in individual pots which then need to be acclimatised before planting out after last frost date. Can be also be easily sown directly after last frost, where they are to flower.
Amaranthus will benefit from pinching and the plants will grow bushier as a result. Amaranthus can be used as both a cut and dried flower. It is also a culinary annual and can be grown as a pot plant.
Seed content : approx 350 seeds - note seeds
