Latebloomer's Garden
Alstroemeria
Genus: Alstroemeria.
Species: Alstroemeria.
I believe this is a hybrid version as it grows much taller (has reached 24 ins) than most I have seen in Garden Centres. It does require early staking to avoid drooping. I have had the plant in a large container for four years now and it flowers profusely in early summer and again in late summer/early autumn. It is a beautiful colour and very hardy as it has survived several snowy and icy winters.
