Alstroemeria shows clusters of lily-like blooms with delicate freckled petals in shades from white to deep pink. Florists favour it for filling out bouquets with long-lasting colour and texture.
Strip any foliage that would sit below the waterline and recut stems at an angle before placing in clean water. Alstroemeria is not very sensitive to ethylene but benefits from flower food to help buds open fully. Keep away from direct heat and draughts, and change water every few days.
