Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week:: UD 006:: Amaranth family 3 to ID:
Here is another Amaramth family that needs a name… It looked very decorative in a border, in a private garden by the Hooghly river this winter.

Another colour of Celosia argentea var. plumosa


so leaf color is different (from the previous case) but the other features remain the same? hence the same binomial?


With … thought … Celosia argentea var. plumosa.
…. change in colours of leaf / flower / stem – because it is cultivar.
