Do this when you get home
- Trim the stems and stand them in a little water
- You can also display them dry. Globe amaranth already looks like a dried flower.
Day to day
- If they're in water, change it every 3-5 days
- A dry-feeling flower ball is normal. That's the bracts.
Common questions
How long will it keep?
Once it's dried, it can last months, even a year, with the color barely changing. That's where the "thousand-day red" name comes from.
