Alstroemeria Inticancha White Pink
Notify MeAlstroemeria Inticancha White Pink is a compact, long-flowering perennial featuring delicate white flowers flushed with soft pink and accented by fine dark streaks.

Its neat, bushy growth and lush green foliage make it an excellent choice for borders, garden beds, and containers.
Uses and Garden Styles
Perfect for cottage gardens, mixed borders, and patio containers, Alstroemeria Inticancha White Pink brings a soft, romantic touch to any space. Its sturdy stems and long-lasting flowers also make it a fantastic option for cut flower arrangements.
Preferred Conditions
Thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-draining, fertile soil. Keep soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging. Space plants approximately 30 cm apart for healthy growth and airflow.
Mature Size
Grows to a compact height of 30–40 cm with a similar spread, forming a dense, floriferous clump.
Trimming: Cut back spent stems to encourage fresh growth. In late winter or early spring, remove any dead or damaged foliage. For continuous flowering, gently pull rather than cut stems at the base.
Deadheading: Regularly remove spent flowers to prolong flowering and maintain plant vigour.
Fertilising: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring and again in mid-summer. A liquid feed high in potassium (such as tomato fertiliser) can encourage better flowering.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells and the plant’s establishment period. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
Pest Control: Watch for aphids and slugs, particularly in spring. Use insecticidal soap or neem oil for aphids and organic slug control methods as needed.
Disease Management: Alstroemeria can be prone to botrytis (grey mould) in humid conditions. Ensure good air circulation and remove affected leaves promptly. Avoid overhead watering to reduce fungal risks.
