Cute and compact

-

Alstroemer­ia ‘River Valley’ is a new, low-growing Inca lily for garden borders and containers. A truly compact plant of just 30cm tall, it bears highly attractive cream and green variegated leaves and large, deep pink flowers with a yellow throat and dark stripes on the inner petals. Plant it in sun or semi-shade in fertile, organicall­y rich soil that drains well. It requires moderate watering and should not dry out completely. Container plants do best in morning sun with afternoon shade and regular watering. This summer-flowering perennial should be protected from frost with a thick bark mulch that’s applied before the first frost.
