Alstroemeria Summer Red is a unique cross between cut flower and dwarf varieties which has resulted in tall strong stems of bold colours which will last for weeks in a vase. These are stunning garden plants with a compact and tidy habit, growing to a height of 75cm and a spread of 60cm.
Border Alstroemerias are best suited for planting in a garden or large pot where their height and bright colour can be seen to advantage. Highly prized for their cut flowers they make a valuable addition to any garden. The contrasting foliage gives texture and interest to any garden.
An easy care plant which prefers full sun and good drainage. Apply slug bait regularly and remove dead flowers by twisting off at the base. In late winter/early spring cut back hard to encourage fresh new growth. Protect from heavy frosts.
