Here you can see the (probably) tallest giant amaranth ever grown in Europe: 7,7m / 25,9 feet. Perhaps it’s also the tallest amaranth ever grown outside of USA? At the top, to the right, you can see Bo Persson (the grower of the amaranth) when we were measuring the plant. Bo Persson lives in Trelleborg in southernmost Sweden, not far away from me. As you also can see, Bo is growing many giant amaranths, some of them are almost as tall as this one. I gave him the seeds, which I got from Brian Moore in USA. I think Bo will try to grow an even taller amaranth next year.
