How To Grow... Alstroemerias

I WONDER how many gardeners have been tempted by a beautiful Peruvian lily, planted it out and either watched their plant dwindle after successive winters, or dieaway altogether?

Treated well, alstroemerias can add spectacular colour to gardens from summer through to autumn, but they generally need a little more attention than average to make sure they take successfully.

Make the effort to nurse them past their first couple of winters and they’ll settle down to bloom year after year and spread into impressive colonies.
