ABOUT INCA GOLD RUSH
- Inca gold Rush is an outstanding micro variety which remains very low and tight, producing a mass of deep yellow flowers in spring through summer.

- Part of the Inca series of Alstroemeria bred by Konst BV of the Netherlands, one of the world’s most recognised breeders of garden and cut flower varieties.
- Inca gold Rush will stop you in your tracks. This brilliant beauty is a compact micro variety of Alstroemeria that forms dense clumps of striking yellow flowers through the spring and summer months.
- This mound-forming, tuberous perennial is perfect for borders, small gardens and is excellent in containers! Grow her in a partial sunny spot with fertile, evenly moist, well-draining soil and you won’t be sorry you did! Be careful, dry soil induces dormancy and reduces flowering vigor. Deadhead spent flowers as needed or bring flowers inside to utilize their long vase life as cut flowers. In early Spring, trim back or gently pull out old tuberous stems to encourage new growth and better flowering.
- Inca gold Rush are true Goldilocks plants, they don’t like it too hot nor too cold. They are native to the Andes mountain region of South America, where it stays cool/temperate year-round. Ideal temperatures are 50-65 F but they can withstand intermittent hot days up to 75 F with afternoon shade and a little TLC. Frost will kill unprotected leaves and roots.
