Alstroemeria Inca Pulse - Peruvian Lily

<strong>Alstroemeria</strong>, or Peruvian Lily, has been increasingly popular in gardens and pots over the past few years, making it one of the most sold summer flowers. <strong>Its very long flowering period with exotic accents lasts from late May until October-November.</strong> While most varieties are planted in flowering pots, many grow easily in our gardens and <strong>are very easy to cultivate in loose, rich soil, kept moist throughout the summer.</strong> Avoid overly dry and sunny spots exposed to wind. In slightly harsh climates, you can bring the pot indoors during winter. When repotting or transplanting, be careful not to disturb the roots too much, as they can be brittle, especially in young plants. Cut flowers are available year-round and have won the hearts of florists, who now have a wide range of colours: white, red, pink, salmon, orange, yellow, mauve… They can create bouquets on their own but also pair successfully with other flowers. The flowering lasts 2 to 3 weeks without fading! To optimise the longevity of your alstroemerias in bouquets, change the water every 2 or 3 days and remove wilted flowers and their stems as needed.
