Plant Common Name

Lily-of-the-Incas, Princess™ Camilla Alstroemeria

General Description

Princess Camilla alstroemeria ('Stapricamil') is a minimally taller growing member of the series. Its flowers are white with yellow throat and purple speckles.

The patented Princess Lilies series of alstroemeria was developed by Dutch breeders to be excellent garden plants. They are shorter and more compact plants with excellent branching that leads to lots of free flowering blossoms. Flowers are long lasting and resemble azalea blossoms; they come in a wide array of colors.

All alstroemeria enjoy cool, moist and deep sandy loams and are somewhat slow to establish after transplanting. Cool summers help to prolong flowering seasons.
