Amaranthus Green, often referred to as Love Lies Bleeding, is a striking annual native to the region spanning from Ecuador to Northwest Argentina. Unlike brighter Amaranthus colors, this one has a fresh, natural look that works beautifully as a filler or accent in arrangements. It is a strong choice for cut-flower growers, floral designers, cottage-style gardens, and customers wanting height and texture without adding another bright bloom.
Green (Love) Lies Bleeding) Selling Tips
This variety is useful for customers who want texture, height, and movement without relying on bright flower color. The green tassels blend easily with both soft and bold color palettes, making it valuable for bouquets, wedding work, farm stand bunches, and mixed garden plantings. It gives arrangements a more natural, garden-grown look and helps fill space without competing with the main flowers.
General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
Grow in full sun with well-drained soil. It prefers warm weather and should be protected from cold and wet conditions. Maintain a soil pH around 6.0 to 7.0. This crop grows quickly once established and does not need heavy feeding, use a light to moderate fertilizer program around 75 to 125 ppm nitrogen.
Flowering
Long green tassels will bloom from summer until frost.
Pinching
Pinching is optional. Pinch young plants if a fuller, more branched plant is desired. For cut-flower production, some growers may leave plants unpinched for taller stems.
Spacing
For garden or landscape use, space plants around 12 to 18 inches apart. For cut-flower production, closer spacing may be used to encourage straighter stems and a more manageable finished size.
Pests
Scout your crop regularly for aphids, caterpillars, and slugs.
Disease
Monitor for root rot, which can occur if the growing media remains saturated for extended periods.
Planting Green (Love) Lies Bleeding) Liners
We recommend planting 1 plug per 4 inch container, and 2-3 plugs per 10 inch container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
