Description
Alstroemeria ‘Summer Rose’ brings its superb fresh pink hue accentuated with yellow to this excellent line of hybrids capable of surviving occasional frosts down to -12/-15°C. Well-suited to outdoor cultivation, this variety also makes a striking impact in pots and bouquets. The plant flowers generously for several months between May-June and October.
Alstroemeria ‘Summer Rose’ is a recent hybrid variety, developed in the Netherlands by HilverdaFlorist. It is the result of cross-breeding between varieties intended for cut flowers and dwarf varieties. This is a plant with sturdy stems and vibrant colours, ideal for the garden and floral arrangements.
‘Summer Rose’ shows good hardiness. The plant forms a bushy clump of 60-70 cm in height when in flower, with a spread of 50 cm. Flowering occurs from May-June to October-November. The very open flowers are gathered in small clusters at the ends of the stems. They consist of 3 small central, fresh pink petals with a yellow base streaked with brown, surrounded by 3 broader petals of the same pink. The foliage is arranged towards the upper part of the stems. The leaves of this variety are a very fresh light green shade, in perfect harmony with the flowering. Foliage and stems disappear in winter, leaving only the underground running crown with fleshy roots. It is sensitive to transplant shock, especially in older plants, so it is best to avoid moving it once established.
Alstroemeria 'Summer Rose’ is an excellent variety for outdoor planting. This perennial is stunning in flower beds or on a slope which is slightly shaded in the afternoon. Pair it with short ornamental grasses and compact daylilies like 'Everydaylily Rose', for example. Container cultivation is also possible, and you can cut a few stems to create opulent bouquets.
Note: Please be aware, our plug plants are products intended for experienced gardeners: upon receipt, transplant and store them under cover (conservatory, greenhouse, cold frame...) at a temperature above 14°C for a few weeks before planting them outdoors once the risk of frost has completely passed.

Planting and care
Alstroemeria Summer Rose should be planted in spring, choosing a spot with morning sun or partial shade, in light, well-drained, well-worked soil with a sandy or loamy texture, low in lime, neutral to slightly acidic, and not overly fertile. While they appreciate some moisture to support their flowering, they adapt quite well to dry soils in summer. These plants are fairly hardy provided the soil does not remain waterlogged in winter. You can protect the crown with a thick mulch of leaves or fern fronds in autumn. Slugs are particularly fond of young shoots, so take care to protect them.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
