Native to South America, hence the common name, Peruvian Lily, the Alstroemeria Summer Collection is just a little bit different. Blooming from June to October, you won't be short of flowers in your garden or in your home. The trick to extending flowering time is not to cut or deadhead, but instead just pull by the stem, the resulting wound them initiates further flowers. Collection comprises; ‘Indian Summer’ – vibrant orange and yellow blooms appear like flames above the dark green-bronze foliage; ‘Summer Pepper’ – striking red blooms each flushed with bright yellow stamens; and ‘Summer Breeze’ – - large, golden yellow blooms with bright orange blush and the usual trademark markings contrast against lush, dark green, almost bronze foliage, which is lightly variegated. With so many exotic-looking blooms produced you may be forgiven for thinking that the Alstroemeria Summer Collection is not hardy, but actually, winter protection will only be required if temperatures dip below -10°C.
