Patio plant of the month

Alstroemeria ‘Inticancha White Pink Blush’

This alstroemeria is ideal for a pot on the patio as it maintains its round, compact shape (30cm wide and tall) and flowers repeatedly throughout summer. It does best with morning sun and afternoon shade. Find a position where the pot and roots will be cool, but the leaves and flowers will receive plenty of light. Water regularly and let the soil dry out slightly between watering. On a very hot patio, place the pot on a saucer filled with water and pebbles. Feed once a month with a liquid fertiliser to encourage continual flowering.
