SUN, SUNNY ALSTROEMERIA...

I love them, they last at least 2 weeks in a vase. Beauties.

Alstroemeria, the genus named after the Swedish baron Alströmer who brought them back from a trip to South America in 1753.

Also called the Peruvian Lily or Inca Lily, is a South American genus of about 50 species of flowering plants.

Almost all of the species are restricted to one of two distinct centers of diversity, one in central Chile, the other in eastern Brazil.

Species of Alstroemeria from the Atacama Desert of Chile are winter-growing plants while those of Brazil are summer-growing.

The flower, which resembles a miniature lily, is very popular for bouquets and flower arrangements in the commercial cut flower trade.

 

Have a lovely day and as always, THANK you for your time, M, (*_*)
