Location and care

Globe Amaranth grows best in full sun and well-drained, humus-rich soil. The plants are drought-tolerant and relatively low-maintenance, but benefit from regular watering during hot, dry periods.

Care tips:

• Plant about 25–30 cm apart for optimal air circulation and uniformity.

• Remove faded flowers to prolong flowering.

• Do not over-fertilize as this can cause the stems to become limp.

• Provide plenty of sunlight for bright, intense colors.
