The cluster of funnel shaped pink flowers with flecks of brown and a cream throat look very attractive. The foliage is dark green with narrow pointed ends. Flowers in summer and autumn. Alstroemerias have long been a staple of cottage gardens, but modern cultivars have an extended flowering season, with larger blooms and more vivid colours. Excellent in summer borders, especially with roses, they can also be used in containers.Alstroemerias like a warm, sunny, sheltered spot, and may require staking to support growing stems. They are happy in most soil types, as long as the soil is free draining and not prone to water logging – the roots may rot in damp conditions, especially in winter. During the growing season just remove the spent flower stems right at the base to encourage more to grow. Being long-lived perennials, when planted in the garden Alstroemeria can last for many years with growth that dies back to the ground each winter. Sold in a 3 litre pot.
