Alstroemeria Colorita – Growing Conditions

Alstroemeria Colorita is a compact, long-flowering variety ideal for pots, borders, and garden beds.

Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. In hotter climates, afternoon shade will protect blooms and foliage.

Soil: Well-draining, fertile soil enriched with compost. Avoid waterlogged conditions.

Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, especially during active growth and flowering. Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.

Temperature: Thrives in mild climates; protect from frost by covering or moving pots to a sheltered position.

Fertilizer: Feed every 2–3 weeks in the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer to promote continuous flowering.

Maintenance: Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves to encourage fresh growth. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

This variety rewards with vibrant blooms from spring to autumn, making it a striking and low-maintenance choice for any garden.
