Design Tips

Alstroemerias exhibit versatility in both colour and form, making them ideal for various floral arrangements. These flowers seamlessly enhance seasonal vase displays with their perfect colour highlights. Additionally, they can serve as elegant line flowers in contemporary arrangements or create vivid focal points when clustered in short stems. To optimise their aesthetic appeal, it is recommended to remove the foliage, as it tends to yellow before the flowers fade. Handle the softer stems with care. With proper care, Alstroemerias boast an extended shelf life. When incorporating them into arrangements, pair them with other flowers that share similar vase life characteristics.

To keep your cut flowers looking fresh and vibrant, avoid placing them in direct sunlight, near radiators, or in drafty areas. Also, keep them away from fruit, as the gases released during ripening can harm your flowers. For best results, keep your cut flowers in a cool spot and out of reach of children.
