Also known as Common globe amaranth, these spherical lavender flowers that resemble clover flowers bloom from summer through to fall. This deceptively delicate-looking plant is low maintenance and heat/drought tolerant, perfectly filling the flowering lull during what is often a hot and dry period. Growing to 70cm (28"), this taller variety makes especially good cut flowers and they excel in fresh as well as dried arrangements. Gomphrena is also used medicinally and makes a subtly sweet tea.
