Absolutely beautiful. They don't take well to the summer heat here in SE USA. Alas.
You just answered my question. I garden in Greenville, SC which is hot & humid. Sometimes I get by with growing flowers that prefer a cooler climate in deep shade, but not always. Microclimes matter, but there’s only so much one can do.
@@botanicaltreasures2408 Hi! I garden in a lot of heat and humidity (in Virginia) as well. There are some that can tolerate this type of climate. One that I know of from personal experience is alstroemeria Fabiana. It’s a shorter variety that does great for me, flowering very well in partial shade with no wilting even in the 90’s:)
@@balletktmc Thanks so much for the info. I’ll look for that variety to try in a place with part shade and good air flow.
They seem to be for heat zones 7-10 or 7-12, if this is useful.
@@GardeningatDouentza Thank you. Technically I'm zone 8a, but I have found in my full sun, due south exposure of the back yard it is more like zone 10 and up. To be on the safe side I think that I'd grow them in part shade elsewhere in the neighborhood on common ground.
Amazing plant. Blooming from May to November in Ireland some years
These are beautiful flowers.
I just love Alestromeria and although l only have a small garden l have several. Thank you Rachel for sharing your large beautiful Alestromeria 😁👍
I'm with you on that. Alstroemeria are such a great plant for a large or small garden - just a great do-er and so pretty too.
The flowers in the garden are so pretty ~there are many different colors
Thank you
شكرا على هذا الفيديو الرائع.. و شكرا على الترجمه للغه العربيه.. اتمنى لك المزيد من التقدم والنجاح
Love these flowers 🌸 put some in pots this year. Thanks for the information.
Alstroemeria do really well in pots too. Hope yours do brilliantly.
They’re so beautiful ! 👍👍
These lilies are gorge. I have a love relationship with lilies. When next I travel to the USA I'll sort some bulbs and try growing it in my homeland which is the Caribbean. I took notice of what one of the comments stated that she is from Virginia and she named a species that can grow in partial shade. I have the right area for it in my garden. Thanks once again for a very informative and beautiful garden video
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Alstroemerias aren't bulbs and they're not true lilies at all but I hope they do well for you.
Stunning flowers. I'll definitely be getting some but have no idea which. Yet. 🤔👍
I know, too many to choose from!
Ah hah! We have some pink ones in our garden but I never knew what they were! Thank you. 😊
welcome
Love these lilies They put on such a beautiful show and like you say cut astromaia are exellent in a vase thank you
One of my absolute favourites! Glad you agree.
Hi Rachel, please make a video on how you plant them. Thank you
kind regards.
Marcus
Hi Marcus. There is a video on dividing and planting/replanting alstroemeria coming. June is the best month though.
@@GardeningatDouentza
perfect.
I was wondering if I could plant this close to trees ...my neighborhoodproject ...I have planted simple dahlias ...they doing very well.
So I think it might work out with Inca lily too.
kind regards
Marcus
So Beautiful ! Now, I know what they're called... My local Grocery Store always has bunches of these as cheap bouquets.
I can understand why they're sold as cut flowers. Just look at them!
I have mine in pots. I put them in my, South facing, front garden and in the winter, shield them. Last year, I kept pulling up the dead stems and it flowered all year!
I live in West London and we didn’t have a really cold winter. So maybe I was just lucky.
I'm glad your alstroemeria overwintered well in pots. Usually plants in pots are more vulnerable and need some protection. Maybe that's what you mean by 'shielded'. Happy growing.
Mine are short which just fine for what I needed. In my climate they do lose the leaves in winter 🙋❤️
Very interesting. Thanks for that upadte.
Thank you for the tips, I have just purchased "Indian Summer".
A real gem. Enjoy!
Very pretty flowers. Btw, can Peruvian Lilies grow well in a tropical climate, Mom?
I've just pinned a discussion about this to the top of the comments section on this video. Take a look!
I grow these flowers in pots and they are better than lilies for how long they flower. Feed from April to August with tomato food and they will be happy.
Yes, they make fabulous pot displays! 😊
So beautiful lilies
Well worth growing
I have just found Douentza Garden, and have learnt a lot about deadheading already. Many advice platforms say deadhead, but do not show you how for different plant varieties. I adore Alstroemeria plants, and your are absolutely beautiful and so plentiful, I have bought dozens of these over the last few years, but I have only been able to keep 2 over winter to flower again next year. I have clay soil and add lots of compost, fine tree bark, and grit to try and get good drainage before I plant them, but I still lose too many, and ideas? Lin in Uk zone 8 ish. In the meantime, I have lots of your videos to learn from!
I am sorry you have such bad luck with alstroemerias and am not sure what to say. Some establish more easily than others but you have tried a variety so you should have hit upon the more robust ones . Do they do well before the winter sees them off? You seem to be enriching the soil well. A bed of sharp grit can help with drainage, as per my alstroemeria dividing video . Hope this helps.
@@GardeningatDouentza Many thanks Rachel, I will keep trying until I get it right! As they are so worth it. If you have a strong healthy plant to begin with is key. I am afraid too many commercial nurseries send out young weak straggly specimens, and you cant get them well established before winter comes. Thanks again for your videos
Вітаю Рейчел, я вперше на Вашому каналі, у Вас дуже гарний і прекрасний сад!🌞 Привіт з України.
Ласкаво просимо!
Beautiful, 👏🌹💕
This was very helpful information! I didn't realize you should cut the stems below the ground when deadheading to stimulate new buds. If I divide my Peruvian lily plant in April, can I harvest blooms on the division that year or should I treat it like a new plant and not harvest from it the first year after division? Thanks!
I would suggest waiting until your plant is well established before harvesting flowers. If you planted in April it should be well established by now. Take a look at how firmly rooted it is and make a decision on that basis!
Beutiful Beutiful 😁😁😁 what a Beutiful place 😁😁 happy r u....wish we have them in these part of the world..do they have seeds....thanks..love from kenya..
Alstroemeria are beautiful. Some of the less hybridised ones do produce seed, especially the ligtu hybrids. Thanks for watching and greetings from Ireland to Kenya. Best wishes, Rachel
I'm in Tallahassee.Florida . A pulchilla takes over.
Sorry to hear that
thank you
Your alstroemerias are beautiful. Do you know where I can purchase? Im live in the states. Zone 8
Sorry, I don't know where you can buy them in US
Lowes usually sell them starting around the end of Feb early March
I have a garden bed ready to plant these beauties, please tell me, how far apart would you plant them?
I would plant them 45cm (1½ft) apart but you can go further apart if you have fewer plants. In time they will close any gaps but until that happens you will need to weed the space between so it all depends on how much you can afford. Hope this helps.
I would love to try and grow these but I can’t find plants anywhere. I’m thinking about trying from seeds but I’ve heard they are a bit difficult. Great video
where are you?
Also wondering where you are. Yes alstroemeria need stratification to germinate. The ones I grew needed soaking and then alternate spells in the fridge and on heat. Not for beginners.
@@GardeningatDouentza wowsa certainly not!
@@GardeningatDouentza thank you for replying, I’m in Denmark 🇩🇰
Alstroemerias are borderline hardy here
@@anderjpoo Denmark 🇩🇰
A. pulchella I meant
Alstroemeria inca lily vs these?
Do you mean to ask if Peruvian lily is the same as Inca lily? The answer is yes
tank ue
Do you sell seeds?
Sorry, no.
A.pulchella does too well. A eastern s.american species.the west coast s. american ones great in California
