Htop your temping me with your lovely alstroemerias, how many do you have? This inquiring mind needs to know.
I have 3 now. I used to have 4 types. Ants made a bed in one container and I did not notice it until it was too late. I guess this killed the plants ... but it could have been something else. I believe the ones I have posted are "Premier Series" Alstroemeria. I just found a tag which I believe to be what came with the plants. I just bought 2 Princess Lily plants whch are ground covers. The plants almost look like miniature Alstroemeria. I have not researched them yet so I do not know what the blooms look like. Are you familiar with them? I have several plants (lilies) named "Sun Star" which are very small, have orange blooms and die down in the summer. One is ready to bloom. I cannot locate this plant's botanical name. It is native to Africa and I think I bought it either at Home Depot or Walmart. It seems that many people purchased it and have been unable to locate its ID. Have you heard of it?
I'm new to alstroemerias and would like to know the name of this one, htop.
At the moment, I do not know its cultivar name, but will try to find it tomorrow.
