Plant Description

Alstroemeria ‘Indian Summer’ is a vibrant, clump-forming perennial that fills gardens with fiery shades of orange, red, and yellow, streaked with striking markings from early summer through to autumn. Its upright, structured habit makes it a standout in borders, mixed perennial beds, patio containers, and cutting gardens, adding both colour and architectural interest.

The glossy, bronze-tinged foliage complements the vivid blooms, providing year-round texture and subtle colour even when the flowers are not at their peak. Its funnel-shaped flowers are rich in nectar, making this variety attractive to bees and butterflies, and ideal for gardeners aiming to create wildlife-friendly planting schemes.

Easy to grow in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun or partial shade, ‘Indian Summer’ is low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established, rewarding gardeners with months of reliable colour with minimal care. The long-lasting blooms also make it an excellent choice for cut flower arrangements, bringing exotic charm indoors as well as outdoors.

Whether used to brighten sunny borders, enliven containers, or provide a continuous supply of showy flowers for bouquets, Alstroemeria ‘Indian Summer’ delivers eye-catching colour, structure, and pollinator appeal, making it a dependable and striking addition to any garden.
