One of the most popular amaranth varieties, this plant thrives in warm temperatures and produces large, high yields of tender leaves that are high in minerals, protein and vitamins. This is a great crop for intercropping with beans or sweet corn as it grows vigorously and quickly in rich soil. Amaranth has been used medicinally by many cultures to reduce inflammation and cholesterol levels while promoting healthy hair and skin.
