Narrative
The seeds are black, flowers green, leaves green and red. The RRC class type is weed. It is bushy, branching from the base and late with many plants diseased and dying. HH considers this an A.cr X weed hybrid. Observations from the Rodale Research Center, 1988 Rodale Amaranth Germplasm Catalog. Emmaus, PA. Written on the original collector's packet: "green; uncooked vegetable; forage".
