Details
Alstroemeria 'Summer Pepper' looks wildly exotic with its funnel-shaped, silky blooms in a rich red with contrasting yellow blotches at the throat and black speckling. One of the longest flowering perennials you can find, Alstroemerias produce an inexhaustible display of flowers from June until the first frosts of October. This versatile plant is tall enough to jostle alongside other mid-border perennials or plant it into a patio container and provide a little support. The long stems of tropical blooms are also perfect for summer bouquets – just keep picking them and more will be produced.

Plant Care
Please remember that you're not buying 5cm tall plants. 5cm refers to the diameter of the pot commonly used in plant retail.
The size of the plant can vary greatly.
Most will be between 10-20cm tall unless they are naturally low growing plants or if you are buying herbaceous plants in winter.
In order to lessen our environmental impact, all of our plants will be removed from their plastic cell trays or pots before sending. Ensure you are ready to pot your plants when they arrive.
