Hi,
Does anyone have any experience growing seeds for Callaloo?
Callaloo is a delicious leafy green vegetable dish served in Jamaica. It tastes a little like spinach, only better.
The actual plant is a type of Amaranth.
I ordered the seeds and would like to get a bumper crop, so I could freeze them for winter.

I saw that Strawberry spinach at Pinetree.Joyfirst wrote:No, sorry. But I got the seeds of another kind of spinach, that gives berries too. It is called strawberry spinach from Pinetree seeds. Just put it in the seedling mix. Let us know how yours turns out!
It's funny you mentioned Pinetree, because I ordered heirloom tomato seeds and row cover from them.
I got the seeds off of EBAY. I just typed in "Callaloo seeds" and did a search.Michael H wrote:Chichi, Could you please tell from where you ordered the calaloo seeds, thank you.
They were 1000 seeds for $5.00
Since then, I have done a search on ask.com at typed in "Amaranth seeds" and found them much cheaper.
Oh well, live and learn.I will plant some tomorrow and I hope the seeds are good.
