Alstroemeria Dr.Salter's

One of the loveliest hardy perennials. Once established, the plants multiply to become a strikingly beautiful colony with vividly colored blooms which are excellent for cutting. Flowers early-mid summer. Carmines, flame, yellow and pink, all whiskered, veined or mottled in darker colors in lily-like fashion. Less inclined to sprawl and a little earlier than Ligtu Hybrids.

Growing:

Do not transplant the seedlings but grow on at a lower temperature, gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions and plant the whole pot without disturbing the roots, 6in deep, 12in apart.

Aftercare:

Prefers a sunny sheltered site in well drained soil.
