My Amaranth seems to grow best when I sow it in the ground, where it will grow. To be honest, the best plants have come from seeds that I scattered in the border. The only problem is finding the seedlings, I am not a tidy weeder, so you need to look carefully. I would not suggest starting them early or transplanting them, they seem to sulk, especially if they dry out at all during the seedling process.

I too always leave room for the annuals. How do you grow your amaranth. I've planted it a few years in a row, as a started plant and as seed. They never amount to much in my yard, and I grow everything.
