Amaranthus Velvet Curtains Seeds

Looking to make your bouquets bold and your arrangements unforgettable? Velvet Curtains Amaranth is a lush, late-summer diva cloaked in deep wine-colored plumes that drip like velvet waterfalls from tall, statuesque stems. Growing to a striking 48–60 inches, this annual brings the drama and texture every floral designer dreams of.

In the garden, Velvet Curtains stands tall (with a little support, thank you very much), thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. As the season shifts into late summer and fall, this plant bursts into feathery blooms that sway and spill like rich fabric in the breeze, making it a standout in borders and cutting beds alike.

But where it really shines is in the vase. These velvety tassels add movement, mood, and that oh-so-touchable texture to bouquets and centerpieces. Pair it with dahlias, sunflowers, or ornamental grasses for arrangements that look like they were plucked straight from a painter’s still life. Whether you're designing for a rustic harvest table or an avant-garde wedding, Velvet Curtains brings depth, drama, and a whisper of wild elegance.

Grow it for the garden. Cut it for the vase. Let it steal the show every time.
