Amaranthus cruentus Autumn's touch

Amaranthus cruentus ‘Autumn’s Touch’ is an eye-catching ornamental variety known for its tall, striking plumes of green and copper bicolored flowers. As the season progresses, the blooms deepen to a rich bronze tone, adding a dynamic, ever-changing element to garden borders, beds, and floral arrangements. With a height of up to 1.2 meters, this stunning amaranth provides bold vertical interest and unique autumnal colors.

Sowing Instructions:

  • Sow Outdoors: Directly sow seeds into well-prepared soil after the last frost.
  • Sow Indoors: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the final frost date for earlier blooms.
  • Germination: Typically takes 10–14 days at 20–22°C.
  • Spacing: Thin seedlings to 30–50cm apart once large enough to handle.
  • Care: Keep soil consistently moist during germination and early growth stages.

Growing Instructions:

  • Light and Soil: Prefers full sun and well-drained, fertile soil.
  • Watering: Regular watering, especially in dry periods, ensures healthy growth.
  • Feeding: Minimal feeding required; a general-purpose fertilizer may be used if needed.
  • Support: Staking may be necessary in windy or exposed areas.

Cultivation Instructions:

  • Pinching: Pinch out the central stem to encourage branching and fuller growth.
  • After Flowering: Deadhead spent blooms to prolong the flowering period or allow a few plants to self-seed for the next growing season.
  • End of Season: Remove plants after flowering or leave a few to self-seed for a natural look next year.

Add Amaranthus cruentus ‘Autumn’s Touch’ to your garden for its unique bicolored blooms, vibrant seasonal color changes, and impressive height.
