JB265 Early Splendor ( Amaranthus Tricolor )
Early Splendor Amaranthus is a colorful foliage plant with chocolate-toned leaves topped by brilliant crimson growth. It brings strong contrast to borders, mass plantings, and mixed flower gardens.
Fast Summer Color: Plants establish quickly and provide vivid foliage color once warm weather arrives, continuing until frost.
Useful in the Garden: Grow in full sun to partial shade as a bold accent plant, backdrop, or contrast with green and silver foliage.
Edible and Decorative: Amaranthus tricolor is also valued as an edible green in some gardens and can be harvested much like spinach when young. The colorful stems and foliage also make attractive cut material for indoor arrangements.
