How to Grow Your Amaranth – Green Leaf Seeds

Get ready to make this leafy legend a part of your garden:

1. Planting Time: Best sown in spring or early summer when the soil is warm.
2. Sunlight: Loves full sun but tolerates partial shade.
3. Soil: Prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil.
4. Spacing: Pop seeds about 30cm apart to give them room to flourish.
5. Watering: Keep the soil moist but not soggy. They’re pretty drought-tolerant once established.

Handy Tip: Amaranth loves a regular feed of organic fertilizer to keep those leaves lush and green. Harvest the leaves young for the best flavour and texture.
