I think this problem is something some people created and the plants are too stubborn to give up.<br /> So they spray poison everywhere and kill everything else.<br />But the amaranth will find a way.<br /> My favorite ones that i have grown are A.cruentus "Hopi Red Dye" because it is so beautiful and one of the best. I sure love them and they volunteered around here for a few years until they got called weeds.<br /> One time we were tasked to pull weeds and i asked my friend Como Se llama esta hierba<br /><br />La Mano de Eva.<br /><br />Anyway, there's lots of good Amaranths to grow. There are hundreds of varieties and i think they are a project. <br />So you can try to grow some.<br /> Ok this palmers amaranth might not be the best cultivar, but what are we to do?Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16217677217054777278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8526498499129692237.post-17722591123406767502021-08-24T04:14:29.004-04:002021-08-24T04:14:29.004-04:00I'm also a big fan of chenopods.
