Instructions
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.
