nope not alstromeria but the pic wasn't really good enough for an id.
It was my Chita girls' birthday today.
15 years old!
This is her camellia - she won this going Best Open In Show at a Dalmatian Specialty.
That was 11 years ago & I kept it on a pot then planted it here 7 years ago.
Then it had a bit of an accident & snapped in two.
I pushed the snapped bit into the soil thinking it was a long shot for it to survive.
The bit with the roots attached died.
As you can see the other piece did ok.
