Description

BRILLIANT RAINBOW QUINOA (Chenopodium quinoa) is an ancient heirloom grain that is unique in that it produces cereal grain but not in a grass form. In fact, the young greens are edible as well as the seed. A principle crop for the Incas, who believed it sacred and called it "chisaya mama" or "mother of all grains." Very nutritious with a high protein value (up to 18%) that is fairly complete, making it a great choice for vegetarians and vegans. High in fiber, phosphorous, magnesium and iron, it is also gluten-free and very digestible. Use as an alternative to white rice or coucous. Home-grown quinoa does require soak/rinse/soak/rinse preparation before cooking to remove bitter saponins that coat each grain. Grows 4'-5' and produces colorful seed heads in late summer to fall. 90-120 days. 100 seeds.

GROWING TIPS: Although very similar to Amaranth, Quinoa is a cool weather crop, whereas Amaranth is a warm weather crop. Sow seeds in spring as soon as ground can be worked and protect from birds with row covers. Seed should be planted 1/4" deep in rows 12" apart. When the clusters form you will once again want to provide protection from birds in the form of a scarecrow or other device. If growing as an preserved ornamental, cut stalks at ground level when head color is good and tie in bundles and hang upside down to dry.

Now Shipping ...

Items listed as "Ships Now" ship within 1-2 business days (non-holiday Monday-Friday). We reserve the option to hold small seed orders when a variety (as noted on the listing as "coming") is not yet in until the order can be filled completely. For larger orders, we ship what is available and back-order the remainder. Live plants ship when weather and your zone permit. By the way, once your order leaves our hands it will be in the hands of the shipping carrier, usually USPS, which is experiencing delays due to high volume. If you have any questions, please email us using the contact link on the website. Thank you!

Why not visit our smaller collection on Etsy? You will get free shipping with your order of $35 or more!
