Alstroemeria Ligtu Hybrids
M6002
Plant a mass of warm colour to ignite summer borders and pots with Alstroemeria ‘Ligtu Hybrids’. Clusters of exotic, funnel-shaped flowers bloom in an array of bright shades, from golden-yellow, red, tangerine, through pink to white. The bold flowers feature elongated, curved stamens and pretty flecks of maroon on their upper and often lower petals.
Easy to grow in well-drained, fertile soil in full sun, Alstroemeria ‘Ligtu Hybrids’ are rewarding and highly floriferous plants. Florist’s favourite, Peruvian lilies have an exceptional vase life and bring a tropical look to floral arrangements and bouquets.
Care Guide
For thriving Alstroemeria, choose a sunny location with well-drained, light soil. Plant rhizomes 10-15 cm deep and 30 cm apart. Maintain consistent moisture, ensuring the soil remains damp. A profusion of multi-headed, vibrant blooms appear between June and October which are long-lasting and excellent for cutting. Top dress in spring and once again during the growing season. Shorter varieties are excellent for container planting.
