I would say "ASK GOTTAGARDEN" and then take a look at her red garden a few posts down. She does a fantastic job and her amarans. are dynamite.
I would love to know also!!

I grew Amaranthus 'Velvet Curtains' for the first time last season.....I was very pleased with it. Large tall plants with large seedheads. Very pretty reddish colour.

I've only seen this one in pictures but I think Elephant Head Amaranth may be just what you are looking for. I'm thinking of getting some myself.
