Summer Saint
Until recent years mauve was a colour missing from the Summer range of Alstroemeria this changed with the introduction of Summer Saint and now Summer Chic is joining it. We find Summer Alstroemerias to be good for cutting and for garden displays, you can combine both because it does the plants no harm to pick flowers for the house. Hardy down to around minus 15c, just be careful they don't get too wet in Winter as they will rot. Hardy to around minus 15c.
We are now taking orders for our next batch of plants which will be ready for shipping in around 3 weeks, grown in 11cm pots that can be planted straight outside.
2025 Available as jumbo plugs and plants in 11cm pots from mid-May.
We only supply Jumbo plugs in March they are a good way to save money for experienced gardeners who can grow them in a heated greenhouse, but they are not suitable for planting straight outside. We recommend planting them into 11cm pots upon arrival and keeping them at a minimum temperature of 12c, by around the middle of May they should be ready for planting outside.
