Hopi Red Dye Amaranth grows into tall, sturdy plants with striking purple-green leaves that mature to a deep purple, topped with long, vibrant purple flower tassels. Not only is this plant ornamental, but it’s also fully edible! Young leaves can be enjoyed raw, while mature leaves are best cooked. The nutritious amaranth grains can be added to soups and stews or ground into flour for baking. Traditionally used as a red food dye by the Hopi Tribe, Hopi Red Dye Amaranth also makes a bold cut flower for arrangements.
