Peruvian lilies are also known as ‘Lily of the Incas,’ They are part of the Alstromeriaceae family and are native to South America.

They grow from a cluster of tubers and their fertile and sterile stems grow up to 1.5 meters in height. The leaves vary in shape and the blades have smooth edges.

Purple and lavender.

These flowers which are very similar to miniature lilies look great in bouquets and flower arrangements.

Most cultivars bloom during late spring and early summer and they require at least six hours of morning sunlight, regular water and well drained soil.
I have applied digital effects to this last image to provide a more contemporary look to this stunning Peruvian Lily.

Thank you very much @shashiprabha
Beautiful photos and edits! I am always impressed with how long they last as cut flowers.
Thank you Melinda. I don't think I've used them as cut flowers before but I can imagine how lovely they would look. It's good to know they last a long time in a vase.
It seems like most fresh flower bouquets that you can pick up at the grocery store have Alstroemeria in them. They still hold on long after everything else has faded
I must take a closer look here as there are always plenty of fresh flower arrangements around for sale. Perhaps we don't have as many peruvian lilies in them because I don't recall seeing them.
Lovely variety of colors in these lilies!
Thank you @steven-patrick
Pretty! And warm!
