Morning everyone, the big Peruvian lily is waking up but there are no signs of buds on the dwarf ones yet. Have a lovely day 🧡💛🧡 #peruvian-lily-indian-summer #alstromeria-indian-summer

Morning Jane, mine not quite open yet- mind you it did get moved and split three times😂

Morning Elise. I wanted to move this as itβs getting squished by one of my peonies and a shasta daisy but I couldnβt get it out of the ground 🥵 Iβm going to have to have another go when itβs finished flowering this year or it will be completely swamped 🙄😂 @Auricula

I had a bit of a tussle with mine Jane, it had got really big, it was November and quite damp. All the bits I gave people have done well so not as delicate as I imagined😂

Thatβs good to know. Plants are usually more resilient than we give them credit for 😊 @Auricula

This is always a lovely one 💕

It is isnβt it and it lasts such a long time 🥰 @anges

Morning Jane β€🧡💛

Morning Jason, thank you 🧡 @hebelover

Love this plant, I keep mine contained in a planter - no flowers as yet

It's lovely isn't it Joan. I'm sure yours will flower soon 😍 @joannie.a

Good morning Jane what striking colours itβs a beauty 🤗

Morning everyone, have a great #wildlifewednesday. I saw this little fella yesterday, itβs a bit blurry as he started to move as I snapped 🐞 #ladybird #ladybug #alstromeria-indian-summer #peruvian-lily-indian-summer

Morning Jane. Seems to be a lot about at the moment 👋😊🐞

Morning Pauline, letβs hope it stays that way, Iβve already had black fly on one of my lupins 😱 @flof1952

Oh gosh Jane ....already 😱

Thatβs what I thought. Iβve not seen any since thank goodness 😅 @flof1952

Morning Jane.. need these little guys , Iβve got greenfly on the roses already!!

Morning Julie, I've not seen any greenfly yet but I've had blackfly so yes we definitely need them 🐞 @juliesgarden

Seen a few lady birds but so far no greenfly🤞

Havenβt got them now😂😂😂

They must be doing their job Joan 👍🐞 @joannie.a

Me neither 😂 @juliesgarden

Good morning Jane itβs good to see them around now.no greenfly just yet🤗

Morning everyone, have a super Saturday 🧡💛🧡 #autumncolour #alstromeria-indian-summer #peruvian-lily-indian-summer

Morning Jane, did you manage to move it? I replanted some, potted a couple on one just in case the one in the garden curled itβs toes up and one to a fellow gardener🥰

Morning Janeβ¦ so pretty β€οΈ🧡💛

Morning Jane 🙋ββοΈ you too

Morning Jane β€🧡💛

Morning Elise. No I havenβt. After it got ruined in those torrential downpours we had in summer it has grown back much smaller and Iβm unsure whatβs beneath the soil so Iβm going to leave it for the winter and see what itβs like next year 🤫 @Auricula

Morning Julie, thank you 🧡 @juliesgarden

Morning Jeremy, thank you 👋 @jpea

Morning Ange 🧡 @anges

Good morning Jane the flowers are really pretty. Have a lovely day 🤗

Morning Enid, thank you and you too. It doesnβt look like a bad morning so far 🤞 @godfreye

I was amazed at how deeply rooted it was, 💪🏼 needed to move and split 😂

Iβve got it propped up as much as I can after last nights storm damage and it was just starting to dry out when we had another downpour, nowhere near as bad as last nights I hasten to add #peruvian-lily-indian-summer #rose-campion

It looks perfect Jane. So glad you were able to save the plants. They look beautiful 💗🧡💛 @pelly

Thanks Diane, I hope so too 👍 @hkyfvr

As good as new! Our garden is so dry again we need steady rain not damaging downpours!

Looking good 😉

It's very bunched up but I didn't want to put too many stakes in and damage the roots. We had good steady rain this afternoon but it was too brief 🙄 @Auricula

Thanks Laura, certainly better than last night 👍 @co!u

Thanks Laura, certainly better than it looked last night 👍 @columbiariver

Plant A&E to the rescue 😅👍🏼

Always welcome 👍😍

That looks so much better, Jane. I hope the heavy rain has gone now 🤞😘

Looking good Jane 👏🤞👏

Morning Jane, remember these from your garden - beautiful 🧡🧡🧡

Loved your photos of these last year that I bought one but it is not yet in flower, something to look forward to.

Morning Julie, isn't it just 😍 @juliesgarden

Morning Ange, it's an old faithful now thanks 💛 @anges

It's a fabulous plant, I look forward to seeing photos of yours. This is huge now, I'm going to have to split it this year 😱 @joannie.a

Thanks, it's got so big this year I think I'm going to have to split it in the autumn 😊 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom @hebelover

What a beauty this is Jane!💘😍

Thanks Shelley, I can't wait to see it in full flower again 😍 @ShelleySnyder

These are one of my favourites. So beautiful Jane. Cannot grow them in my zone so will enjoy yours 💗🧡💛

Oh what a shame Diane, I suppose your winters are too cold? 🤔 @hkyfvr

Thanks. Yes they are. I saw in a catalogue there was a hardy one to zone 5 which is what we are but was nervous to try. Maybe I will anyway. 💛🧡💗 🤷ββοΈ @pelly

It must be worth a try 🤔 @hkyfvr

Morning everyone 🙋ββοΈ My Indian Summer still has quite a few flowers looking like this, Iβm not sure they will this morning as weβve had a very hard frost overnight. Keep warm and enjoy the last day of the year safely βοΈ #alstromeria-indian-summer #peruvian-lily-indian-summer #still-flowering

Morning Jane ... bonkers !!

Morning Julie, absolutely 😂 @juliesgarden

Morning Jane, Wow! Thatβs fantastic. So many little plants still managing to cheer us up. 😄😄

That is on my wish list for next year.

Morning Pam, so much has flowered for so long this year hasnβt it. Itβs been lovely 😍 @tiger123

Morning Joan, itβs a really worthy plant, you will love it 🧡 @joannie.a

Morning everyone, have a good day 🙋ββοΈ. I thought this Peruvian Lily had about finished but it has other ideas and has a lot of buds again. What a star 😍 #peruvian-lily-indian-summer #alstromeria-indian-summer

Morning Jane 🙋ββοΈ some flowers are gong really well at the moment

Morning Jeremy, they are arenβt they, Iβm surprised at what is still flowering 😍 @jpea

I've a climbing rose 'Kathleen Harrop' which still has so many buds on which are flowering but it's seemingly time to prune and train it on the wires I've put up but it would be such a shame to do so at the moment @pelly

Morning Jane. I love these flowers ....not long put in a few more varieties 👋🙂

Very worthwhile plants. I have this and two dwarf ones which are great for the front of the border 😍 @flof1952

Good morning Jane what a lovely flower when you least expect them so pretty 🤗

Morning Jane..🙋ββοΈ

Definitely. It's tireless 😍 @godfreye

Morning everyone, have a marvellous Monday. Iβm not sure whatβs going on here but my Indian Summer has changed to Sunshine in my plant list 🤔 I certainly havenβt altered it. If you have this one could you check yours please? Several of my Cyclamen have changed too. Strange goings on #alstromeria-indian-summer #peruvian-lily-indian-summer

Really beautiful Jane. Happy Monday to you.😊

Thanks Pam. Enjoy your day too 🙋ββοΈ @tiger123

Morning Jane 🙋ββοΈ you too and I may have had some changes but as I can often forget what I've planted I'm unsure 😏

Morning Jeremy, thank you. It's very odd as this definitely said Indian Summer last time I posted it 🤔 @jpea

Morning Jane, official name changes are bad enough but unofficial ones - no way.

Morning Joan. I actually have Inticancha Sunshine and it's pink and a dwarf one, nothing like this, it's very puzzling 🤔 @joannie.a

@gardentagsplantsteam can you help please?

Morning Jane, had this before with some Hebes 🤔

Morning Jason🙋ββοΈ Did they give yours the wrong name? 🤔 @hebelover

I think mine was perhaps slightly different in that i had 2 different Hebes (that were quite different) and they kept being merged under one name

Strange. I know some entries are wrong and it needs cleaning up but this is so obviously wrong 🤔 @hebelover

Morning everyone, have a super day. This poor little plant has survived its third move in a year but it seems to be happy in its new home and is flowering well now 🌸 #peruvian-lily-inticancha-sunshine

Morning Jane. This has to be one of my favourite flowers ....nice in a vase too. Enjoy your day 👋😮👌

Morning again Pauline, Iβve just had to change the directory link on this as I noticed it came up as Indian Summer. Not sure what happened there. This is a dwarf one so no good for a vase but itβs very pretty nonetheless 💗 @flof1952

Oh really ....might have to get some of these then Jane. I've several spaces for shorter plants 👍🙂

Thereβs a pretty yellow one in this series too. They only grow to about a foot high so great for the front of the border 👍 @flof1952

Thank you very much Jane ....I'll take a look now 👍🙂

Morning Jane 🙋ββοΈ glad its found its spot

Morning Jeremy, thanks, me too 😍 @jpea

Morning 🙋ββοΈ🌸💛🌸💛

Morning Julie, thank you 👋 @juliesgarden

Morning Jane, must look out for one of these, I have a couple of larger ones and like them but now have them in pots are they are a bit thuggish.

Morning Jane, it's certainly pretty 😍

I had to pull some of my Peruvian Lily's as the recent rains had flattened them so I picked a few other flowers to make another of my haphazard flower arrangements #fflower-arrangement #vasefullofflowers

I rather like your haphazard flower arrangement 😍 nothing nicer than flowers from the garden to fill a vase 🌼🌿🌹🍃

Thank you Debra, that's very kind of you 🙏😃 @london148

Lovely colours

They usually last ages as cut flowers don't they? Look great! 🧡

Thanks very much Maureen 😊 @maureen137

Thanks Ange, yes they do but I'm still not sure about my flower arranging capability 🙄😂 @anges

@pelly. Thank you pelly, l have tried with the romaine lettest, but little joy, l change the water every day but no luck so l will try with celery now. 🤞🤞🤞

I've never tried lettuce, I would imagine it's not as easy. Let me know how you get on 😃 @gwenniemom

@pelly. Yes l will. I see you planted it in soil, well on you tube, the way l did the lettest was cut the stalk off and put in a glass of water about just covering the bottom of stalk. Like l said l had no luck. 😭😭😭

Thatβs just how I started mine off. I only got a couple of small roots before I put it in soil @gwenniemom

Looks fine to me.

My Peruvian Lily is huge this year β₯💛β₯ #peruvian-lily-indian-summer #alstroemeria-indiansummer

That is lovely Jane 🥰 I tried to grow this from seed this year with all the faff of stratification etc, not a sausage! 🤨

Thanks Elise, they're well worth having as they flower for months 😍 @auricula

Thanks Vivien, I've never tried from seed before but I might give it a go. I've just looked at the RHS website and it says you sow immediately after the seed pod has burst, nothing about stratification 🤔 @sadieberg

Wow that is amazing Jane!

Thanks Val, itβs going from strength to strength 😍 @valjones-hughes

Very pretty, seen a few Peruvian lilies from Gters and they always look spectacular. Is it a good year for them do you think and are they easy to maintain, Jane?

That looks fantastic!

Beautiful Jane 👌😃

I think once they've established they're always good and yes, they are very easy Mark 👌 @solly1961

Thanks Jacqueline, I thought it was big last year, it's going crazy this year 😍 @awomanonabike

When you buy seed you donβt get them fresh so you have to break the dormancy with a period in the fridge first. I think Jayne tried with the same rubbish results @jaynehynesburton

A lot of my plants are well behind last year Julie, but this has been in bud for a while @vec 🤔🤔

Just spotted one of the orange ones in flower. I'm about 3/4 done with the planting/shoehorning 😂

You are doing well then. When can I plant my Cannas out please? 🤔🤔

It named Indian but I've not seen it before here

I think think this particular one is named because of the colours.Peruvian Lilies come in a variety of different colours and originate from South America Jyoty @jyotu 👍👍

Lucky you Jane!! Enjoy your Thursday!💘😍

@pelly Morning, they're doing well! 😀

They're sure blooming a long time and they're so pretty!

Thanks Sylvia, my new favourite plant, and my husband chose it!!! @SylviaDavies 🤔🤔

Nice colours! I like the different types of foliage 😍😍😍

Iβm finally getting to the stage where Iβm not just looking at colour, but at the foliage etc. Itβs only taken three years Urszula 😂😂😂 @ublaszko

Those are such stunning flowers😍😍

😆😆👍 I started noticing foliage this year as I've been revamping my shaded corner and it dawned on me that foliage provides a longer season of interest than flowers. 😅 The downside is that foliage plants have less to offer for pollinators so I try to combine the two.

Iβve never taken much notice of Alstromerias before, my husband picked this out at a GC about three weeks ago Katy, and now Iβm in love with them @gjones 🧡💛

@pelly They're already on my wishlist for next year. I've seen them in cut flower arrangements here but haven't seen the bulbs for sale. Will wait till spring bulbs come out in our catalogues. Fingers crossed!!

Whoops, I might have been plant shopping. Isnβt this gorgeous, Neil picked it too!!! Cataloguing.

You won't regret that buy. One of my favourites 💛🧡

Iβve never had them before Julie, I know you love them. Are they better in a pot or the ground? 🤔🤔

Oh this is on m wishlist for next year Jane @vec Julie has it in her hot bed it's a gawjus one 💘💛💘 not at all jealous 😍👍😂

Better in the ground @pelly Pull the finished flowering stem from the root, don't deadhead it 😘

@vec oooh thanks for that info I didn't know that I will do that with my butterfly ones as they go over they do flower for ages I've noticed 👍😄

Jane mine survived much better in garden lost all others year before in pots they've thrived in garden this year and it was my 3rd attempt with them 😄

I couldnβt believe Neil, he wandered off and bought it to me at the till, I was shopping for bargains and he comes back with a £12 plant!!! Iβm not complaining though @Keely 😂😂😂

Thanks Julie, Iβve found a perfect spot for it and thanks for the advice too @vec 😘😘

Well once you've got a beauty you will always have it will be worth it Hun nice treat 😊👍

Yes they say to divide them every few years but I've left mine to become bigger clumps. I've got 2 of them. I have a few other orange and yellow ones which are in their first full year from very tiny plants. Hoping I can divide those in a couple of years and spread them around a bit. No winter protection needed either but I mulch with horse manure which feeds for the following year 😀

😂😂 plants that cost that much make me nervous Keely, I much prefer rescue ones @Keely
