Description
"Inca Flamingo", a standout cultivar of the Alstroemeria family, dazzles with its vibrant pink flowers, each petal showcasing intricate white and yellow patterns. Growing to a modest 30cm in height, it offers a long bloom period, gracing gardens with its colours from late spring to early autumn. Its compact size combined with striking blossoms makes it an ideal addition for both lively garden displays and as a charming pot feature.
Suitable for both pots and garden beds, "Inca Flamingo" enjoys full sun to partial shade and thrives in well-draining soils. During warm months, regular watering is essential, though it can be reduced in cooler conditions. For sandy terrains, enriching with organic compost will enhance soil quality. An application of a balanced fertiliser in early spring will ensure continuous, vibrant blooms.
