Red Amaranth Microgreen Seeds
Our non-GMO, untreated red amaranth seeds grow into some of the most visually stunning microgreens available. With deep magenta stems and vibrant reddish-pink leaves, they bring instant colour and elegance to any dish—making them a favourite among chefs and home growers alike.
Red amaranth microgreens have a mild, earthy flavour and fine, delicate texture. They’re best enjoyed raw as a garnish or in fresh salads and high-end plates. While slower growing than other microgreens, their vibrant payoff is well worth the wait.
These seeds are packaged in 100% compostable, resealable, plastic-free pouches, making them a great choice for eco-conscious growing with minimal waste.
