Amaranthus

This flower is also a grain. Amaranthus is another plant I grew from seed years ago, and now I have it every year because it re-seeds itself. The flowers are also popular for dried flower arrangements. Love Lies Bleeding is another name for Amaranthus.

Nice shot.

"Love Lies Bleeding is another name for Amaranthus."

Love lies bleeding -- my favorite Elton John song. (Actual name is Funeral For a Friend.)
