Peruvian lilies, Alstroemeria, are among the most showy of perennials, with their spectacular large, brightly streaked flowers.
Alstroemeria 'Neptune' produces bright pink flowers from July up until the first frosts. It's superb planted in groups along a path edge, or grouped informally in a sheltered sunny border. In colder regions plant it at the base of a south-facing wall. Not fully hardy, mulch for the first two winters to protect the rootball.
