Amaranthus Perfecta Amaranthus Tricolor is a popular annual foliage plant. Known as Summer Poinsettia, Joseph's Coat, and Tampala, Amaranthus Perfecta can be easily started from seeds, and this Amaranthus forms tall, narrow sturdy columns that have dark green, bronze leaves below a dense packed yellow and red foliage.
Summer Poinsettia is a long-lasting annual that grows taller and taller during the summer months, and its dramatic colors are best displayed in mass plantings.

I received my order about 5 days after purchasing it. The envelope was from an individual (I'm assuming whatever seeds you order come from the person who has the stock available). Everything was exactly what I ordered. Good transaction. 👍
