Description
Attractive and vibrant, Celosia Pampas Plume is a blend of scarlet, orange, bright yellow, pink and cream feathery plumes held on 100cm tall stems.
In the garden, the multi-branching plants are perfect for the back of the flower bed. The plants handle heat with ease and are they are fairly drought tolerant.
In a vase, the flower spikes can last as long as 8 weeks!! A must-have for bouquets and flower arrangements.
In Africa, Celosia is used like leaf amaranth. Its leaves soften up readily and cook in minutes and possess a spinach like flavour.
They are often added to stews or pepped up with such things as garlic, hot pepper, fresh lime, and red palm oil and eaten as a side dish.
