Local place has some on sale. Still pricey, but some nice ones. I do not want to spend $$ if I cannot keep this over-winter and use as a perennial. I am in zone 5 and have a room that gets bright light for at least a couple hours a day and indirect light for the rest. My phal. orchids do well there. Any experienced help would be appreciated, before the good ones are gone!!

Many Alstroemeria are deciduous so you only need a cool, frost free place to keep it pverwinter (some will take a few degrees of frost)
