Alstroemeria Inca Adore
Notify MeAlstroemeria Inca Adore is a compact, clump-forming perennial known for its vibrant red flowers with delicate darker markings on the inner petals. Blooming abundantly from late spring through to autumn, this Peruvian Lily adds striking colour to borders, containers, and cut flower arrangements. Its lush green foliage provides a perfect backdrop for its vivid flowers, making it a standout feature in any garden.
Ideal for cottage gardens, mixed borders, or patio pots. Thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers rich, well-draining soil. Water regularly during the growing season and mulch in winter to protect the roots. Space plants 30–40 cm apart for a dense, colourful display.
Reaches a mature height of 30–40 cm and spreads up to 30 cm, creating a compact yet showy addition to your garden.
Trimming: Remove spent stems at the base after flowering to encourage continuous growth. In late autumn or early spring, cut back old foliage to make way for new shoots.
Deadheading: Regularly remove faded flowers to prolong the flowering season and prevent seed formation.
Fertilising: Apply a high-potassium fertiliser every two weeks during the flowering season to support blooms. A slow-release fertiliser in spring can also promote healthy growth.
Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. Avoid waterlogging by ensuring good drainage.
Pest Control: Look out for slugs, snails, and aphids, which may attack the plant. Use organic pellets or insecticidal soap to manage infestations.
Disease Management: Alstroemeria is prone to root rot and botrytis (grey mould) in poorly drained or humid conditions. Ensure well-drained soil and good air circulation, and remove any affected foliage promptly.
