Rolling into fall
If you've ever seen photos of endless red fields that look like they're on fire, you've seen kochia in action. In the spring and summer, this annual herb starts off with a fresh green look, resembling a fluffy green ball. As the seasons change, so does its colour—transforming into shades of red, orange and even pink.
