Alstroemeria (Peruvian Lily) – The Long-Lasting Champion of Color
If you are looking for beauty that truly lasts, Alstroemeria is the right choice. Also known as the "Peruvian Lily," we consider it a little treasure of floristry. Its delicate, lily-like miniature blooms are often adorned with charming dots or "freckles" that give them a unique character.
A Tip from our Florist, Bára: "Alstroemeria is a florist's dream. It's incredibly durable – with proper care, it can easily last two weeks in a vase! Plus, there are multiple flowers on each stem that bloom sequentially. I love using it in mixed bouquets to add volume, playfulness, and lots of color."
Alstroemeria at a Glance: What You Should Know
-
Symbolism: It is the flower of friendship, devotion, and mutual support. This makes it an ideal gift for a best friend or as a token of gratitude.
-
Appearance: Trumpet-shaped flowers in shades of pink, yellow, white, orange, or purple. They are characterized by darker dots or lines inside the bloom.
-
Availability (Our Shop): Year-round in the highest quality.
-
Vase Care (Our Tip!): Change the water regularly. As individual flowers on the stem fade, gently remove them – this gives more energy to the other buds, which will bloom in succession.
Give a bouquet of friendship that lasts longer than a week.
