Amaranthus Hypochondriacus, Prince’s Feather Seed 20000 PCS, Amaranth Zilixian

Amaranthus hypochondriacus is an ornamental plant commonly known as Prince-of-Wales feather or prince’s feather. Originally endemic to Mexico, it is called quelite, blero and quintonil in Spanish. In Africa, like many other species in the family Amaranthaceae, it is valued as source of food. In temperate regions it is cultivated as a half-hardy annual. Numerous cultivars have been selected, of which ‘Green Thumb’ and ‘Pygmy Torch’ have gained the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit. Amaranthus hypochondriacus originates from North America, possibly as a hybrid between the north American wild Amaranthus powellii S.Wats. and the cultivated Amaranthus cruentus L. Amaranthus hypochondriacus is now widely cultivated worldwide, in tropical, subtropical and temperate climates, but mainly as a grain and ornamental crop. It is also found in tropical Africa (e.g. Kenya), but its exact distribution is unknown because of confusion with related species.
