Orach, Plume Series

Atriplex hortensis [75 (leaf) to 110 (seed) days]

Many visitors to the farm last year remarked on the bold and contrasting spikes of orach seed heads in our field.  Red plume, copper plume, and green plume comprise this mix, and while the color names give an indication to their hues, I would characterize the dark, glowing colors in this mix as plum and burgundy.  They are brilliant, fabulous textures to add to any arrangements.  An edible annual that grows up to 72” tall (seed heads) and best spaced 6” apart.
