Customer questions

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to common questions about identifying, buying, using, caring for, and safely displaying the botanical covered here.

What is Amaranthus?

Amaranthus is sold as fresh-cut stems for vases, bouquets, centerpieces, events, and floral designs.

What does Amaranthus look like?

Expect long, cascading amaranthus tassels made from densely packed tiny flowers, with tones that can range through burgundy, pink, and green. Tassel length, color, fullness, and natural curve vary by bunch.

Does this amaranthus stand upright or trail downward?

This amaranthus is chosen for long cascading tassels that naturally hang and curve. Use it where you want movement over the edge of a vase, bouquet, arch, or arrangement rather than a rigid upright flower spike.

What exactly arrives when I order Amaranthus?

You receive one grower’s bunch. Because a grower’s bunch is packed by harvest volume, we do not promise a fixed stem count. Color, flower size, openness, petal count, and stem curve naturally vary.

What buying options are offered for Amaranthus?

When ordering is open, each quantity on the separate Self Care Shower product page represents one grower’s bunch.

How should I care for Amaranthus when it arrives?

Recut the stem ends, place them promptly in a clean vase with fresh water and floral preservative, remove foliage below the waterline, and keep the arrangement away from direct sun and heat.

Should I put Amaranthus in water?

Yes. Recut the stem ends and place them in a clean vase with fresh water. Change the water regularly, keep the vase clean, and remove deteriorating material promptly.

How long will Amaranthus last?

We do not promise a fixed number of days. Freshness depends on arrival condition, hydration, temperature, direct sun, airflow, and how often the water and vase are cleaned. Follow the care steps above and remove any deteriorating material promptly.

Does Amaranthus have a noticeable scent?

We do not promise a strong or consistent fragrance for Amaranthus. Choose it primarily for its color, form, and texture; natural scent varies with freshness, temperature, airflow, and individual sensitivity.

Is Amaranthus safe around cats and dogs?

We do not sell this as a chew-safe product for cats or dogs. Keep the stems, leaves, flowers, fallen pieces, and vase water out of reach, and ask your veterinarian about your pet’s specific risk.

Can I eat or cook with Amaranthus?

No. We sell Amaranthus for decorative use only, not for eating, tea, garnish, medicine, skincare, or cooking.

Will my Amaranthus look exactly like the photo?
