Amaranthus Autumn Palette (Amaranthus cruentus) is on magnificent display at the Auckland Domain Wintergarden this week.
A native of central America, Amaranthus leaves can be cooked like wild spinach and the seeds are a valuable food source when ground into flour.
A stunning autumnal shade of biscuit brown, this flower contrasts well with all the other vibrant hues on display in the Wintergarden this summer.
