Chenopodium giganteum, also known as tree spinach, is an annual, upright many-branched shrub with a stem diameter of up to 5 cm at the base, that can grow to a height of up to 3 m.
The younger leaves of Chenopodium giganteum are hairy with a magenta colour and the older become green. The rhombic to ovate formed lamina can have a surface of up to 20 x 16 cm. The inflorescence consists of terminal panicles with hermaphrodite flowers, which are wind pollinated. The flowers contain 5 perianth leaves and 5 stamens. The flowering period begins in August. The seeds have a diameter of 1.5 mm. The number of chromosomes is n=54.
Chenopodium giganteum belongs to the same genus as quinoa or Chenopodium album. Many species of this genus have a long history of domestications as grain, vegetable or forage crops. Therefore, genetic relationships and place of origin are hard to determine. Chenopodium giganteum has two main subspecies: one originating from India the other from America.
It grows well in Mediterranean environment but needs full or partial shade. Chenopodium giganteum does not have high requirements on soil quality. Furthermore, it shows weedy characteristics such as fast growth and rapid spreading. In a few countries, such as Germany and Slovakia, Chenopodium giganteum has been reported as a neophyte. The commercial cultivation of Chenopodium giganteum is nearly inexistent. But because of its stable and high yield Chenopodium giganteum could be a plant of the future.
The young shoots and leaves of Chenopodium giganteum can be eaten cooked like spinach, another member of the Amaranthaceae. Most of the oxalic acid and saponins are removed during the cooking process, especially if boiled for 2 minutes at 100 °C (212 °F). However, the leaves are also edible raw in lower quantities, for example as a salad. The seeds can be prepared similar to rice or quinoa or can alternatively be ground into flour, which is then mixed with cereal flour for bread making.
Due to the partially pink coloured leaves, Chenopodium giganteum also has an ornamental value.

NOT Outdoor balls.
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: White
NOT outdoor. Don't waste your time if you are looking for proper outdoor balls, these are indoor. I don't play indoor so couldn't use them.

Thick indoor balls, of a darker pink color.
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Pink
Good indoor pickleballs. The description said they were outdoor (thin crisp plastic) but they are thicker. By the picture on my pc monitor, they looked brighter pink than they actually are. I was hoping to use these outdoors in the early morning rising sun, on a blue court with yellow green edging, but the color is too dark to be of use. So when we move indoors for winter, we will use these indoor balls there. They arrived quickly and were well packaged.

Great but hard to see when playing!
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Purple
The balls are great but when playing with them, if you wear glasses the ball is a little hard to see. We played with the orange, yellow and green balls, which are easier on the eyes. Otherwise, the balls are great! 😍

Great value
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Purple
Although pickle ball snobs have told me these are NOT proper outdoor balls, I love them! Not only are they a fantastic color but I like the weight of them and they are great for outdoor play. As a bonus, they are well-priced, so I feel I got bang for my buck.

Bright color easy to see but not a great bounce on the outdoor court
Style: 6 - Pack, Color: Pink
I liked the fact that these balls were a bright color and easy to see but the bounce on them was not as good as other name brands. They were OK as a back-up and performed better outside then on the indoor courts which are made of a different surface. We are using them , but would most likely not repurchase.
