Amaranthus spinosus Native to the lowland tropics in the America’s spiny Amaranth is an upright, often full summer annual that grows to heights of 2–5 feet. Sharp spines appear at each leaf node and stems and leaves are smooth and typically shiny in appearance. Arrange these tall branches in a large pot or vase like our Natural Tadelakt Vase, and mix them with other dramatic branches.  Note that stems are flexible, and can be easily cut with strong, heavy-duty clippers. These are assembled by hand from ethical producers in China. Learn more about how our EcoFaux™ botanicals help break free of the Petro-chemical cycle in our Journal article here.
