Narrative

The seeds are white, flowers orange, leaves green. The RRC class type is: edulis. It was selected for earlier maturity than other edulis types. Most of the plant did not mature in the field at RRC. Observations from the Rodale Research Center, 1988 Rodale Amaranth Germplasm Catalog. Emmaus, PA. As reported in the 1981 publication, this was used at the RRC as a check variety to compare with other A. caudatus, but is no improvement over any.
