Alstromeria ‘Summer Red’ 2L

A striking cross between cut-flower and dwarf varieties; Alstroemeria ‘Summer Red’ produces tall; strong stems with bold red blooms that last for weeks in a vase. Compact and tidy in habit; it grows to 75 cm high with a 60 cm spread.

Ideal for borders or large pots; its vibrant flowers and contrasting foliage add texture and interest to any garden. Highly valued for cut flowers; this easy-care perennial thrives in full sun with good drainage. Protect from heavy frost; apply slug bait regularly; remove spent flowers by twisting off at the base; and cut back hard in late winter or early spring to encourage fresh growth.
