How to recognise it

Multiple funnel-shaped florets per stem, spotted/streaked throat on inner petals
Narrow, twisted lance-shaped leaves along the stem
Several branching flower stems per stalk
Slim, wiry stem
No noticeable scent

Care

Strip any foliage that would sit below the waterline and recut stems at an angle. Use clean water with flower food and keep away from fruit and other ethylene sources. Recut every few days and change the water regularly, as alstroemeria is sensitive to bacterial build-up.
