Enjoy beautiful, continuous flowers with the Inca Coral Peruvian Lily. This plant, also known as Alstroemeria, is not a true lily, but it does resemble its namesake. The tips of the petals are a beautiful deep coral color that fades into a light, almost white, near the center. The topmost petal features a yellow horizontal stripe dotted with dark specs. Multiple trumpet-shaped blooms grow from a sturdy central stem. The narrow green foliage comes to a point and provides a lovely contrast against the coral blooms.
This perennial blooms from spring through fall, making it a lovely plant to include in a border or mass planting. As a dwarf plant with a compact growth habit, the Inca Coral Peruvian Lily is a natural to feature in a container. The blooms are long-lasting and also make excellent cut flowers. This plant is a perennial in USDA zones 7 through 10, and it grows as an annual in all other areas.
Inca Coral™ Peruvian Lily Care
Place this Peruvian Lily in an area with part to full sun. This plant likes moist soil and will need water when the top inch of the soil dries out. The soil should have a pH of 5.5 to 6.5 and should be well-draining. While Alstroemeria likes moist conditions, soggy soil will promote root rot.
Remove spent flowers to keep this stunner looking good and prevent the stems from becoming leggy. Starting in the spring, feed the Alstroemeria using a water-soluble plant food with a ratio like 10-5-5 or 12-4-8. Apply the fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season. The plant may outgrow its space in a few years, so dig up the roots in the spring, divide the rhizomes, and replant.
Inca Coral™ Peruvian Lily Spacing
This plant will grow 8 to 12 inches tall by 14 to 16 inches wide. Plants can be spaced 16 inches apart when used in a border or mass planting or spread further apart if that is the desired look. One Peruvian Lily can grow in a 12-inch container.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
