Flowers. They really command attention. I’ve been seeing them used in flower arrangements recently and they also can be dried and used for decorating around fall/Christmas holidays.
What a beautiful display. I would never think to use that Amaranthus in an entryway, but it really works. Some people are so creative! The arbor, seating, and pots are lovely, too.
The colors work well with the stained wood and lighter greens and there look to be several other attractive pots in the background. Very nice, you’re lucky to live close by!
Wow! Now that is impressive.
It made a dramatic look near the entryway.
Repetition works every time doesn’t it?
Yes, something I should keep in mind. Have a good day.
Are those red things its seeds or flower? it looks special.

That is one special plant, gonna add them to my wanted list, thanks 🙂
I agree..very impressive.
I agree too. Really caught my eye the other day.
So many variations of Amaranthus, one more gasp-worthy than the next. My current favorite is ‘Dreadlocks’.
Very impressive – I haven’t seen these around for ages. I must track down some seeds. I really like how that is used up the post
Hope you find some amaranthus seeds Matt. I’ve enjoyed seeing it this year so maybe I’ll try to grow it next summer.

Beth, it was an attractive planting–that draping amaranthus was a real eye-catcher.
Such fun and so impressive…Lover the photo series.
Never tried growing amaranths myself, but might be worthwhile.

A dramatic name for a dramatic plant.
Sorry, that’s not Amaranthus caudus, that’s chenille plant (Acalypha hispida).
