6000x Amaranthus Caudatus Red Seeds – Ideal for Borders, Beds & Containers


Amaranthus Caudatus Red Seeds can give your garden striking colour and texture. Long, flowing crimson tassels on these eye-catching annual flowers make for a spectacular display in borders, flower beds, containers, and floral arrangements. The seeds in each package are carefully chosen to guarantee robust germination and healthy growth, making them ideal for both novice and seasoned gardeners. Once established, Amaranthus Caudatus requires little care and grows best in full sun and well-drained soil. Their distinctive drooping blossoms provide any garden design a vertical depth and draw pollinators. After the last frost, sow immediately outside; if you want earlier blossoms, start indoors. Enjoy vivid, long-lasting flowers that give your yard style, colour, and a distinctive focal point throughout the growing season.


Growing Instructions:


Sow Amaranthus Caudatus red seeds indoors in seed trays three to four weeks before the last frost, usually in late May. These plants can handle typical garden soil and flourish in full sun, so pick a sunny, protected spot with well-drained soil. Plant seeds sparingly on the soil's surface, then lightly cover them with 0.5 cm of dirt. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate, which normally happens in 7–14 days. To ensure adequate airflow and growth, thin seedlings to 30–40 cm apart after they reach a height of 10–15 cm. During the summer and early autumn, these low-maintenance annuals produce long, eye-catching red tassels that are perfect for borders, beds and containers. They also draw pollinators and give UK landscapes dramatic vertical interest.
