Amaranthine

I learned this new word today, thank you to dictionary.com word of the day. Here is its definition:

amaranthine \am-uh-RAN-thin\, adjective:

1. Unfading; everlasting.
2. Of or like the amaranth flower.
3. Of purplish-red color.

My first thought was that this was a lovely word that could describe love! But as I read the examples, it seems like it's used more in mythical senses... so maybe nevermind. :)
