Alstroemeria Inca Candy (Peruvian Lily) A vibrant and playful perennial that adds a sweet "pop" of color to any garden bed or container. Inca Candy is famous for its bright, candy-pink petals highlighted by sunny yellow centers and dramatic dark whiskers. This compact, mounding variety is a non-stop performer, blooming tirelessly from late spring all the way through the first frost of autumn. Bloom Time: Reliable, heavy flowering from late spring until the first hard frost. Flowers: Bright candy-pink petals with vivid yellow throats and elegant dark flecks. Foliage: Dense, lance-shaped green leaves that maintain a neat, mounded shape. Growth: Compact and bushy; typically reaches 10–14" tall and wide. Light: Thrives in partial sun; more sun results in more prolific blooms. Water: Requires regular watering; prefers moist, well-drained soil. Do not allow to sit in standing water. Hardiness: Perennial in USDA Zones 8-10; excellent for containers in cooler climates. Landscape Use: Ideal for mixed containers, mass plantings in borders, and premium cut flower bouquets. Pro Tip: For maximum bloom production, "pull" the flower stems rather than cutting them. A firm tug at the base of the stem signals the plant to send up a fresh flush of new flowers!
