Used primarily in the fall, this prettier version of the popular vegetable is a bold, fancy leaved plant that can grow 18- 24 inches tall forming a rounded clump 18-24 inches wide.  It is showcased for its white, pink, purple and red leaves and not for consumption since it has a very bitter taste.

Planted in a sunny location, Ornamental Cabbage will give you a great splash of colour in a normally drab fall.

This rather unique annual also known as Love Lies Bleeding definitely delivers visual interest in any garden all summer long.

Growing 3-4 feet tall in the full sun, Amaranthus produces long, slender drooping tassels of gold or red flowers with leaves a deep crimson.

These blooms are great for cut or dried flowers arrangements.
