Alstroemeria Inticancha Indigo 3Lt

Alstroemeria Inticancha Indigo is a compact, clump-forming Peruvian lily valued for its rich purple blooms over a long season from early summer into autumn. Ideal for containers or the front of borders in sun or light shade, it performs best in a warm, sheltered spot with moist but well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Regular picking or deadheading prolongs flowering—gently pull stems from the base rather than cutting to encourage new shoots. In Ireland, protect crowns with a deep winter mulch and give container plants shelter during severe cold.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
