Semences Nordiques' organic Hot Biscuit amaranth offers a wide range of possibilities. When the plants are young, the leaves are edible, like spinach. At maturity, the plant easily reaches 5 feet: the branches are then used to make bouquets. Amaranth seeds can also be harvested.
Sow seeds 2-4 weeks before last frost at 1/8" depth. Transplant with 18"-24" between plants when the days are warm and the risk of frost has passed.
Based in the hills of the Outaouais region, Semences Nordiques farm offers certified organic and open-pollinated seeds. Carefully selected, top-quality varieties ensure reliable germination rates and vigorous seedlings.
Catherine, owner of Semences Nordiques, sums up the spirit of her company: "Our farm practices reflect a deep respect for nature. We strive to improve the health of our soils, promote biodiversity and preserve our natural resources".
