Peruvian lilies - a photo on Flickriver

Peruvian lilies

            ... or Alstroemeria.  I loved these so much I bought a bunch from our local flower shop.  They were a bargain at only 50p, as they're slightly past their best, tomorrow's Sunday and the shop's closed.  I hope you like them as much as I do.  They are another example of a South American native taking root in our gardens and thriving.  Apparently easy to grow, a herbaceous perennial.   A long flowering season from spring to late autumn.

I've been searching my brain for a suitable title, something poetic, but can't think of a thing !  I've got a cold and it's dulled my brain.  New heating being installed in my house next week and I'm dreading it !!  But I'll try to keep up... failing already, but my spirit is willing !

Thanks as always for every fave and comment - I do really appreciate it.  

This photograph was Explored at No. 73 on 29 September 2018 - thank you so much everyone !

It's been pointed out to me that these may in fact be freesias... I'm not going to argue as I'm no expert but they had no scent, which is strange !
