Amaranthus Emerald Tassel
(Amaranthus caudatus)
Why we love this flower:
Uses: Dramatic trailing cut flower, garden backdrop, floral filler
Luxurious green tassels cascade like velvet ropes, bringing movement and opulence to borders and bouquets alike. Amaranthus Emerald Tassel thrives in summer heat and dry conditions, producing long, shimmering drapes that seem to glow in sunlight. Its chartreuse plumes add cool contrast to vibrant summer colors and soften arrangements with texture and depth.
