Common name flamingo feather Family amaranthaceae Life cycle annual Flowers pink (summer) Size 12-18" Light sun Cultural notes ordinary garden soil From seed sow at room temperature (or with bottom heat). self-seeds sparingly in our garden. I was surprised to see this one peek its fluffy head up in our cutting garden the other day - this kind of volunteer is welcome in our garden. I think it looks better than the ones I purposely grew one or two years ago - the parents of this year's interloper.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: cutting garden
