Description

The radiant golden-yellow blooms with bold crimson freckles of Inca Gold Rush will stop you in your tracks. This brilliant beauty is a compact micro variety of Alstroemeria that forms dense clumps of striking yellow flowers through the spring and summer months.

This mound-forming, tuberous perennial is perfect for borders, small gardens and is excellent in containers! Grow her in a partial sunny spot with fertile, evenly moist, well-draining soil and you won't be sorry you did! Be careful, dry soil induces dormancy and reduces flowering vigor. Deadhead spent flowers as needed or bring flowers inside to utilize their long vase life as cut flowers. In early Spring, trim back or gently pull out old tuberous stems to encourage new growth and better flowering.

Are you lucky enough to have A/C? Do you keep your home temperate year-round? These compact Alstroemeria may be the most spectacular houseplant for you! As long as nobody has allergies to pollen of course.

Alstroemeria are true Goldilocks plants, they don't like it too hot nor too cold. They are native to the Andes mountain region of South America, where it stays cool/temperate year-round. Ideal temperatures are 50-65 F but they can withstand intermittent hot days up to 75 F with afternoon shade and a little TLC. Frost will kill unprotected leaves and roots.

Very nice! Healthy & flowering upon arrival

These came in fairly fast once shipped, packaged very well and came in with good tops. Some of them came in flowering already, all of them with bugs! You can feel the strong roots in the pots of these plants ready and wanting to get out and planted rite away! I love the true deep yellow color of this variety and look forward to giving it a prominent spot towards the entrance of my house 👍 very happy with this purchase will be buying again
