Growing Zones
A compact floral designer favorite, the Inticancha® Sunset Peruvian Lily (Alstroemeria x 'Sunset') is an elegant yellow-cream bloom with dark flecks and an orange-peach throat. Long-lasting and feeding your hummingbirds and pollinators from late spring into fall. The funnel-shaped blossoms grow in crown-like clusters at the top of strong succulent stems.
The dwarf Inticancha® series are deciduous herbaceous perennial bulbs forming spreading clumps of lance-shaped green leaves. The foliage clumps look great in both the landscape and the container garden, slowly spreading into their own polite colonies. The radiant blooms bring in butterflies and bees, and you'll enjoy many stems for you to snip for cute little bouquets!
Peruvian Lilies grow from rhizomes and are hardy perennial bulb plants in USDA planting zones 7 to 11 in the ground year-round, but can be annual accents or seasonal focal points in cooler growing zones!
Landscape Application:
The Inticancha® Sunset Alstroemeria are petite perennial bulb plants, forming polite colonies gradually over time. The flowering stems are crowned in pastel sunset hues, growing just 8-12 inches tall and forming clumps that mature 12-15 inches wide.
These blooms are very showy, and create easy-to-maintain front-of-the-garden borders and edging accents in any style of garden, both in the sun and in partial shade! The tri-colored blossoms look great with all flowers on the warm side of the color wheel - reds, oranges, pinks, peaches, yellows, and buttercream!
Pot up your dwarf Sunset Peruvian Lilies in mixed container gardens on your porches and patios both in the sun or in the shade. Sized perfectly to be a specimen planter on balconies, filling window boxes, and gracing seating areas, gazebos, and poolside planters alike! Northern gardeners can enjoy these perennial bulb plants as annual specimens that can be brought in for the winter as you would Dahlia or Canna Lilies!
- Showy Buttercream Petals Streaked & Speckled in Yellow, Peach & Orange
- Succulent Stems & Lush Green Foliage Mounds
- Summer Through Fall Bloom
- Perfect For Pollinators & Cutting Gardens
- Front Of The Border Accents, Edging, Groupings & Container Focal Points!
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Dwarf Alstroemeria do best in full sun or part shade and They like to be undisturbed for the first couple of years, so Northern growers can pot their plants up for easier moving in the cooler months. Mulch the site well with 3-4 inches of arborist bark chips, especially going into winter. Cut all stems back in late fall. They like a bit of a protected spot.
Once the foliage yellows or frost nips back the tops of these plants, trim back the foliage and stems and add a layer of mulch or compost for the winter. Northern growers can lift their bulbs and store them in a cool, dark location for the winter where they can remain dormant.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade (Especially In Warmer Climates)
- Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Likes Regular Moderate Moisture
- Mulched Beds High In Organic Matter
- Prune Back Late Fall
