Peruvian Lily - Alstroemeria Orange King - GIGA Pack! - 50 pcs. is a rare but highly attractive species, especially valued as a cut flower for its enduring charm. Originating from the mountainous terrains of South America, this variety features erect, non-branching, leafy shoots that grow from fleshy underground rhizomes. The inflorescence is a corymb with branching spikes, each bearing successively developing, uniquely shaped flowers. These flowers are characterized by their flaming orange hue, dark yellow spots, and a brown, cross-hatched pattern on the upper petals. The plants typically reach a height of about one metre and feature uniformly green, spirally arranged foliage. They bloom from June to September.
Alstroemeria Orange King is best showcased in a prominent location in your garden. Its slightly exotic allure makes it an ideal choice for home borders and flower beds. It also thrives in pots on balconies or in dense rows near terraces. When cut, the flowers can last between 7 to 14 days in a vase, making them a long-lasting option for floral arrangements.
For optimal growth, this plant prefers sunny, quiet, and warm locations. It thrives in humus-rich, permeable, slightly acidic, and moist soil. Rhizomes can be planted in pots as early as March and transferred to the ground or balcony in mid-May. Due to its sensitivity to cold, the rhizomes should be dug up for winter storage in bright, moderately warm rooms.
This GIGA pack includes 50 first-choice Alstroemeria Orange King rhizomes, each accompanied by a product label offering essential cultivation information.
