The cream-white petals of the Inca Lucky Peruvian Lily have a salmon-pink throat highlighted with a brief hint of yellow. This continuous blooming perennial will push out blooms during the spring, summer, and fall and dazzle any landscape. The charming flowers grow on strong upright stems covered in lance-shaped dark green foliage. This lovely blooming plant is also known as the Lily of the Incas or Alstroemeria.
Feature the Inca Lucky Peruvian Lily in borders, beds, or mass plantings. This plant has a dwarf growth habit and will reach 8 to 12 inches in height, so plant it near the front of a bed where it will be visible. Alstroemeria makes an excellent container plant since it naturally maintains a compact size and features showy blooms. This plant grows as a perennial in USDA zones 7 through 10, but it can often be found as an annual in cold regions.
Inca Lucky™ Peruvian Lily Care
Plant in full to part sun. Increased light is necessary for this beauty to bloom. Alstroemeria likes moist conditions and needs water when the top layer of the soil is dry. Soil should have 5.5 to 6.5 pH and allow for drainage. Feed the plant using nitrogen-rich water-soluble plant food every two weeks during the growing season.
Deadhead the plant to maintain a neat appearance and encourage more flowers. Dead stems can be removed at any time and trim back old growth in the spring. Alstroemeria is propagated through division. Spring is the best time to dig up and separate the roots. New plants should be replanted right away.
Inca Lucky™ Peruvian Lily Spacing
The Inca Lucky Peruvian Lily will grow 8 to 12 inches tall and 14 to 16 inches wide. Plants can grow as close as 16 inches or spread further apart based on preference. When grown in a container, select a large pot or divide the plant into several smaller plants if using a small 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.
