Alstroemeria aurantiaca
PERUVIAN LILY MIX
- Unit price
- / per
Flowers show rich tropical-color with masses of orchid-like flowers on this hardy perennial! Plants are trouble-free and form dense and tidy clumps.
Type: Perennial
Location: Full sun
Height: 60-90 cm
Hardiness zones: 7-10, possibly zone 6 if given a thick layer (6-8") of mulch for protection.
Seeds per packet: 10
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Leave them at room temperature for 4 weeks. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. They will not grow yet. Then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 6 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15-18C, 59-68F) for them to germinate. Germination can be erratic, generally 30-90 days after the warming period, though some can take longer.
