Coral Fountain Amaranth
Amaranthus caudatus ‘Coral Fountain’
4-inch pot
 
A graceful and eye-catching annual, Coral Fountain amaranth produces long, trailing tassels in soft coral to salmon-pink tones that cascade elegantly from tall stems. The flowing, fountain-like blooms add movement and a softer alternative to darker amaranth varieties, making it a standout in borders and cutting gardens. Its unique color and form are especially valued in both fresh and dried arrangements.
 
This variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, where it grows quickly and produces abundant blooms through the summer. It is heat tolerant and relatively low maintenance, requiring only regular watering during establishment. Its tall, upright habit with trailing flowers makes it ideal for the back of borders or as a focal point.
