Green Love Lies Bleeding Seeds – Amaranthus caudatus 'Viridis' – Cascading Lime-Green Tassels for Cut Flowers & Dried Arrangements.
🟢 A Unique, Cascading Garden Spectacle
Green Love Lies Bleeding is a stunning, less common variety of the classic Amaranth. Instead of the dramatic red tassels, this variety produces long, pendulous, fuzzy green flower spikes that cascade over the foliage. The pale, lime-green color is incredibly versatile in the garden, pairing beautifully with both bright and pastel flowers. The tassels can grow up to 2 feet long and hold their color for months, even when dried. This heat-loving, low-maintenance plant is a must-have for anyone who loves unique, statement-making garden plants.

- Soil Type: Well-drained, average to fertile soil. Tolerates poor soil but performs best with moderate fertility.
- Germination Time: 7–14 days at 70–80°F (21–27°C). Darkness helps germination.
-
Days to Maturity: 70–90 days from seed to flower.
- Mature Height: 36–60 inches (3–5 feet). Spread: 24–36 inches (2–3 feet).
📏Spacing & Seeding Instructions
- Plant Spacing: Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart to allow for full growth and air circulation.
- Seeding Density (Per Linear Foot): For a row, sow 4–6 seeds per linear foot and thin later.
- Seeding Density (Per Square Foot): For mass planting, sow 6–8 seeds per square foot.
-
Sowing Depth: ¼ inch (0.6 cm) deep. Cover seeds lightly with soil.

🧑🌾 Step-by-Step Planting Instructions
Start Indoors (Recommended for Zones 3–7):
- Fill seed trays with moist seed-starting mix.
- Sow seeds ¼ inch deep (cover lightly with soil). Seeds germinate best in darkness.
- Place the tray in a warm area (70–80°F). Keep soil moist but not soggy.
- Seedlings emerge in 7–14 days. Move to a bright location.
- After 4–6 weeks, harden off seedlings over 5–7 days before transplanting outdoors.
Direct Sow (Best for Zones 8–10):
- Wait until soil temperature reaches 65°F (18°C) and all frost danger has passed.
- Prepare a well-drained bed in full sun. Remove weeds and loosen soil.
- Sow seeds ¼ inch deep, spacing seeds 4–6 inches apart in rows.
- Water gently to avoid washing seeds away.
- After 3–4 weeks, thin seedlings to 18–24 inches apar
Ongoing Care:
- Watering: Water regularly until established (first 4 weeks). Once mature, water once per week during dry periods. The plant is drought-tolerant but produces best with consistent moisture.
- Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at planting time. Avoid over-fertilizing (can cause excessive leaf growth and fewer flower tassels).
- Support: Tall plants may need staking to prevent them from falling over, especially in windy areas or rainstorms.
- Harvesting (Cut Flowers): Cut flower spikes when they are fully colored but before they begin to fade or drop seeds. Strip lower leaves and place in water immediately.
- Harvesting (Dried Flowers): Cut spikes as above. Hang them upside down in a warm, dry, dark, well-ventilated area for 2–3 weeks. They will hold their color and shape for years.
