Re: Callaloo seeds ?
Green Amaranth is the botanical common name you can get it in green form or red Johnny's seeds carries them.
We grow a few thousand plants a year on the farm,the key is to keep them well watered and fed with nutrients.Slugs
like them at night so wood ashes spread around the base helps with them.Keep plants pinched back to avoid going to seed
to quickly.

Re: Callaloo seeds ?
The plants will go to seed quickly. Almost from the time they are an inch or so high, seeds will begin to sprout. We also have some problem with the leaves being eaten. I used chemicals for that (my bad). We have been growing callaloo successfully for a few years here in West Michigan and I have not seen squirrels bother them. Maybe because we feed the wild birds and sunflowers seed is always available at our all night diner.
