This annual, which grows quickly, gives gardens, pots, and borders a striking tropical look by adding vibrant colour and texture. Particularly prized for its early and prodigious foliage show, \"Early Splendour Red\" is ideal for summer planting. Once established, it can withstand heat and drought and grows best in full sun and well-drained soil.  The plant requires little maintenance and grows into a rich, colourful focal point that adds energy to gardens and draws attention all season long with its blazing foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Instructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the UK, amaranthus tricolour, often known as Joseph's coat or \"Early Splendour Red,\" grows best in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. From late February to early April, plant seeds indoors in pots or seed trays filled with moist compost, about ¼ inch deep. For germination, which typically takes 7–14 days, keep the temperature between 18 and 22 degrees Celsius. Harden off seedlings by exposing them to outdoor circumstances gradually for 7–10 days once they have developed two to three true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, which is usually in late May. Plants should be transplanted outside with a 30-45 cm gap between each other to allow for growth. Although amaranthus can withstand heat and dry spells, it is best to water it frequently during these times. From midsummer to autumn, it will yield vivid, blazing foliage, bringing striking colour to gardens in the UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yorkshire Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52331181277526,"sku":"E26","price":1.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0794\/2691\/2598\/files\/57_1569b354-289f-457d-a4cd-0368d83efa51.png?v=1768477167","url":"https:\/\/yorkshire-seeds.co.uk\/products\/700x-amaranthus-tricolor-early-splendor-red-seeds-joseph-s-coat-vibrant-e26","provider":"Yorkshire Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
