Product description
Alstroemeria Colorita Eliane is a gorgeous outdoor plant that has a compact habit. Its deciduous, dense green foliage is joined by an abundance of colour, with pink flowers being its main feature, before a stunning yellow half-circle shape begins to form from the centre. The final visual feature of the plant is shown by a dark stylized section of flecks forming over the pink and yellow shades. From June to October, Alstroemerias will flourish, requiring they are planted in moist, well-drained soil and kept in full sun to partial shade. Once-a-week watering will suffice for this low maintenance perennial.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Slugs and snails are known to devour alstroemerias, so use an eco-friendly barrier or deterrent to protect young plants.
How to Water
Water regularly during dry spells, taking care not to over-water as this can damage the fleshy roots.
How to Plant
Choose a sheltered spot in full sun with free-draining soil and dig a hole around 20cm deep and slightly wider than the root ball. Add some well-rotted organic matter to the hole and leave 40-60cm between plants.
