Love Lies Bleeding
(Amaranthus caudatus)

Love-Lies-Bleeding is a pendant amaranth with dark red, drooping tassels that hang straight down. Flower stalks can be used as an everlasting in dried arrangements as it retains its color well. The species is from the tropics and is used as a grain amaranth in some parts of the world. It is an old-fashioned plant that adds interest to flowers beds and borders.
