Flowers of Alstroemeria Varieties Growing in Australia

Another plant I grow is the Alstroemeria as I find they are a great companion plant grown along side the cannas, they are also long-time bloomers in the garden or potted and are perfect as a cut flowers.

I have listed Alstroemerias found throughout Australia, they are currently being listed below with their names that were supplied at time of purchase, some have had their identities corrected whilst a few I know were labelled wrong, however as these plants are circulating in Australia, I will keep them as purchased until their correct identity is confirmed.

Like cannas some Alstroemeria varieties also show different color changes throughout the season, which can make it difficult to correctly identify who the particular cultivar actually is; therefore, I have added additional pictures of certain varieties that show some of these traits.

Where applicable the first picture will be of its true form and additional pictures of its colour fluctuations for reference.

Where possible I also try to show the reverse of the flower as this can be critical in identifying some varieties that appear similar along with different traits of flecks on blooms.

Heights listed are those that were stated on named pot plant tags. In some descriptions a second height is listed as what that Alstroemeria variety has reached in my garden. Height is measured from top of mulch or soil to top of flowers.

All Alstroemeria images are taken by me and show copyright name so others don't use them to sell wrongly named plants to unknowing buyers.

If your passing through my town of Terang, Victoria, Australia, I also often have some Alstroemeria varieties for sale as potted plants.

I hope you enjoy my pictures of these beautiful Alstroemeria flowers and may you find some information to take away with you on your gardening journey.
