A brand-new selection of South African exotic perennial for the temperate garden! Alstroemeria Summer Heat is a bright flowering Peruvian Lily, cultivated for its profuse, bright red blooms with golden yellow centers that create a dramatic display in the full sun landscape from July to September. The long-lasting blooms are ideal for cut flower arrangements, and their upright habit makes them a wonderful option for giving some verticality and brightness to the edge of the perennial border or container planting. Scarlet red tubular flowers attract bees, butterflies, and the occasional hummingbird. This semi-tropical perennial does best with good drainage and some winter protection, but has been proven to be successful in zone 6 winters.
