Ropes of deep red, trailing blooms. A reminder of things Victorian and a graceful accent in arrangements. Fantastic color and texture for fresh bouquets or large containers. When dried, the blooms turn from green to a light tan color that works well in fall arrangements. This is a great complement to Coral Fountains and Green Tails (Emerald Tassels). All have similar plant habits, days to maturity, and great presence in arrangements. Common names include amaranth and tassel flower.
