How to care for Alstroemeria Inticancha Moonlight ('Tesmoonli') (PBR) (Inticancha Series):
Newly planted Alstroemerias should be given a very generous 20cm (8in) deep mulch of chipped bark in their first winter to help the plants become established. In subsequent autumns, provide a dry mulch of bracken or bark chippings to help protect the crowns. After flowering cut back the faded flower-stems, but make sure you always wear gloves when working with Peruvian lilies, as contact with the foliage may cause skin irritation.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
