What are Alstroemeria flowers?
Alstroemeria! The Peruvian Lily, the Lily of the Incas... or even "Ulster Mary" (say "Alstroemeria" fast to see where this name comes from!). This plant goes by many names; thankfully, they're all just as pretty. These Latina beauties hail from sunkissed areas of South America where their lush green foliage and outstanding bright blooms peek out amongst the dense beauty of the jungle.
Where are Alstroemeria flowers from?
Originally, these stunning flowers come from just two areas - one in Eastern Brazil, and one in Chile. They have big, showy flowers with six petals. Some Alstroemeria have vibrant colours which make a bouquet vivacious and exciting. Others are more restrained; the cool pale alstroemeria in our wedding bouquets add a gentle touch of class.
Where do Alstroemeria flowers get their name?
The alstroemeria flower derives its name from a Swedish botanist called Baron Klas von Asltroemer. In the middle of the 18th century he travelled to Spain and gathered the seeds of this alluring South American bloom.
As well as being symbolic of wealth, good luck and fortune, the alstroemeria is also thought to be the flower of friendship. Available in a multitude of different vibrant colours, alstroemerias tend to bloom in late spring and early summer.
