Amaranth
A person's name
Amaranth is a plant with broad leaves and dense clusters of tiny flowers, often deep red or purple.
Some species are cultivated as grain, others as leafy vegetables, and others for ornament.
The name comes from a Greek word meaning unfading, and amaranth appears in poetry as an imaginary flower that never wilts—a symbol of immortality.
The color amaranth is a reddish-purple derived from the plant's characteristic hue.
