Why Choose Tall Alstroemeria for Your Garden?

Popular Tall Alstroemeria Varieties

If you're keen to introduce tall alstroemeria to your planting scheme, several standout varieties thrive in local conditions:

For those desiring splashes of different colours, consider Alstroemeria Deep Rose (Peruvian Lily) or Alstroemeria Inca Concordia (Peruvian Lily). Though not all cultivars achieve the same height, these named selections offer a range of shades suitable for mixed perennial beds.

Growing and Caring for Tall Alstroemeria

Tall alstroemeria flourish best in well-drained, fertile soil with plenty of organic matter. Choose a sheltered spot with good light; while full sun encourages flowering, many varieties also perform well with afternoon shade, especially in hotter regions. Water consistently during dry spells and mulch generously to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

For ongoing blooms, pick flowers regularly or remove spent stems at the base. Unlike some perennials, tall alstroemeria prefer to be left undisturbed, forming tidy clumps year after year. Divide only if plants become congested or you wish to spread them around your garden.

Adding Height and Colour With Tall Alstroemeria

Whether you’re refreshing established beds, creating a pollinator-friendly border, or seeking dramatic cut flowers, tall alstroemeria provide a winning combination of height, resilience, and beauty. Explore the diversity of our New Zealand-grown stock, from Alstroemeria aurea (Peruvian Lily) to Alstroemeria Orange Glory (Peruvian Lily), and enjoy the garden-transforming potential of these stately, long-flowering perennials.
