Alstroemeria - Peruvian Lilies
Here's some fun little information about one of our favorite flowers called Alstroemeria . Did you know that they are native to South America, specifically Brazil and Chile but we often buy them grown in Canada and California. They are sometimes called Peruvian Lilies and each stem has a cluster of 3 to 6 blooms. They come in colors such as red, orange, lavender, white, pink, green and even yellow like these shown here. We buy them by the case full and they are a staple for the Floral Industry . These cut flowers are very long lasting and with a fresh cut and a water change ever other day, they can last up to 2 weeks if not longer! Many of the arrangements featured on our website www.sendingsmiles.com include this very lovely flower. They are especially wonderful because we can get them all year round and often use them in all 4 seasons of floral design. We often feature them as our $5 Friday Flower and they often sell out.
