Globe Amaranth
''Gomphrena globosa'', commonly known as globe amaranth, is an edible plant from the family Amaranthaceae. The round-shaped flower inflorescences are a visually dominant feature and cultivars have been propagated to exhibit shades of magenta, purple, red, orange, white, pink, and lilac. Within the flowerheads, the true flowers are small and inconspicuous. ''Gomphrena globosa'' is native to Central America including regions Panama, and Guatemala, but is now grown globally. As a tropical annual plant, ''G. globosa'' blooms continuously throughout summer and early fall. It is very heat tolerant and fairly drought resistant, but grows best in full sun and regular moisture. The plant fixes carbon through the C4 pathway. At maturity, the flowerheads are approximately 4cm long and the plant grows up to 24 inches in height. ''Gomphrena globosa'' is an outcrossing species that is pollinated by butterflies, bees, and other insects. Floral volatiles likely play a significant role in the re ...
