Description

So called because the enormous flower takes the shape of an elephant snake.

The plants produce deep purple-red flowers. A unique amaranth, a striking variety. An old ornamental selection from 1880.

The heavy seed bunches bend considerably and take on the shape of an elephant's head.

The black seeds are still edible and can be used as a grain in cooking.
