Add an exotic touch to your garden by planting gorgeous summer-flowering Alstroemerias.
Alstroemerias, more commonly known as Inca lilies or Peruvian lilies, are the stalwarts of countless flower gardens. Rhizomatous perennials with fleshy, tuberous roots, they’re versatile plants that can be used to bring colour to your garden in a variety of ways.
Why grow Inca Lilies/ Alstroemerias?
- Their long flowering time means they bring colour to your garden for months on end.
- The range of colours is extensive, including orange, pink, rose, purple, red, yellow and white or salmon; some are marked with contrasting whiskers and rouged cheeks.
- They need little maintenance.
- They’re seldom troubled by pests and fungal diseases, but watch out for snails.
- They’re relatively frost tolerant.
- Hybridisation has resulted in compact plants for small gardens.
- They make superb cut flowers, lasting 2–3 weeks in the vase.
- Water them regularly in the summer growing season; in summer rainfall areas water them periodically in winter.
