A sculptural favourite, Amaranthus ‘Emerald Tassels’ drapes gracefully in long, pendulous ropes of soft green. Its trailing blooms feel both wild and elegant, perfect for adding movement, texture, and a touch of the unexpected to bouquets. In the garden, it towers with quiet drama, blending beautifully into borders and late-season plantings.

Best for: Unique filler, textural contrast, fresh or dried arrangements.
