Each flower blends sunny yellow centers with peach petals and apricot backs, and the purple-black tinted foliage makes the warm colors glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt grows into a vigorous, tall plant about three feet high and wide, with long, sturdy stems of florist-quality flowers that last a long time in a vase. It has overwintered for multiple seasons in zone 6 and does best in well-drained soil with winter protection. Bees and butterflies visit the open blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eClusters of lily-like, funnel-shaped flowers 2 to 3 inches across at the tops of tall, leafy stems; each flower has peach petals, apricot outer backs and a sunny yellow throat with fine dark streaks on the upper petals. Leaves are narrow, lance-shaped and twisted at the base, in dark green with purple-black tones. The plant is vigorous and upright, 36 to 42 inches tall and wide. At peak bloom clusters of peach and yellow flowers top many dark stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeruvian lily prefers richer, more evenly moist soil than lavender, so give it its own sunny bed or a large container near the patio, where its long-lasting flowers are easy to cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun to part shade in fertile, well-drained soil with even moisture; set the rhizomes about 1 inch deep. Hardy in USDA zones 6-9; in zone 5 and colder, give a thick winter mulch or grow in containers moved to a protected spot. For cutting, pull stems from the base rather than cutting, which encourages more flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alstroemeria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peach with yellow centers and apricot backs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark green with purple-black tones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tall, vigorous, upright clump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36–42 in tall × 36–42 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, part sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-July\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-August\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
