Narrative
The seeds are white, flowers green, leaves green. The RRC class type is: Nepal. It is very prone to lodging. Observations from the Rodale Research Center, 1988 Rodale Amaranth Germplasm Catalog. Emmaus, PA. Yields excellent. Maturity late but earliest of nepal grain types. Lodging tendency. As reported in the 1981 publication, it is difficult to thresh.
