Description

Funnel-shaped, silky blooms in a rich red with contrasting yellow blotches at the throat and black speckling. Alstroemeria 'Summer Pepper' looks wildly exotic but is a cinch to grow. One of the longest flowering perennials you can find, Alstroemerias produce an inexhaustible display of flowers from June until the first frosts of October. This versatile plant is tall enough to jostle alongside other mid-border perennials or plant it into a patio container and provide a little support. The long stems of tropical blooms are also perfect for summer bouquets – just keep picking them and more will be produced.  

Combine Alstroemeria ‘Summer Pepper’ with jewel-coloured half-hardy Salvias such as ‘Amistad’ for an extraordinarily long flowering and richly coloured display. Height: 70cm (28in). Spread: 50cm (20in).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow
Pot up Alstroemeria plants and grow them on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outdoors and all risk of frost has passed. Alstroemerias perform best in a sunny, sheltered spot in a rich, free-draining soil that contains lots of organic matter. A weekly feed with a high-potassium feed such as tomato food will encourage prolific blooming, while removing each stem after the flowers have faded will prolong the flowering season. Tall stems may benefit from staking or support to prevent wind damage. Will survive temperatures down to around minus 5c but not much lower. Apply an autumn mulch if in a border, or if in a container, move to a frost-free spot over winter.
More Info
Throughout the growing season, water Peruvian lilies regularly and feed container grown plants each month. When picking alstroemeria pluck the flowers rather than cutting as plucking stimulates the rhizome encourage further growth. In autumn, cut back the old Alstroemeria flower stems and apply a dry mulch of chipped bark or straw to the base of the plant to protect it from cold winter weather. Alstroemeria prefers to be left undisturbed but can be divided in autumn or spring if clumps become overcrowded. Caution: irritant to skin and eyes.
