The Fairy Tale of the Alstroemeria

You will find in many mixed bouquets, the alstroemeria. But what color will this flower reveal when it opens? Where the mixed bouquet distinguishes itself by a wow factor at the moment of giving, it is not the alstroemeria that ensures this in the first place. It's because the flower is still in its bud, and does not yet show its true nature. But that's also the nice thing about the flower, it becomes THE surprise of the bouquet.

Fairytale

The alstroemeria flower compares to the Ugly Duckling after Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, where a gray chick becomes a beautiful swan. In the same way, the stem of the alstroemeria with closed, green buds becomes a full, and colorful flower that stands out in any floral arrangement. A big plus of the alstroemeria is that one stem contains many flowers. As a result, the flower also lends itself perfectly as a stand-alone in a set of small vases. And that is something that should be shown more often. Such as a tray full of vases of various sizes containing different colors of alstroemeria.
