The plant is often grown for both ornamental and culinary purposes! In some regions it is also known as Joseph's coat, after the biblical Joseph, who is said to have worn a coat of many colours!
Amaranthus gangeticus is considered a synonym of A. tricolor, although it was recognised as a separate species in the past. It is also known as elephant-head amaranth. It is an annual plant with beautiful, colourful foliage.
