Amaranthus Mira
(Amaranthus cruentus)
Why we love this flower:
Uses: Upright cut flower, textural accent, edible foliage
With bronzed green leaves and feathery rose-cream plumes, Amaranthus Mira stands tall and regal in the garden. Its color shifts from soft green to antique rose as the blooms mature, making it a staple for late-summer bouquets. Strong stems and heat tolerance make this variety both beautiful and reliable.
