Alstroemerias ... £2 a bunch at a local market.

Oh, good value!

Indeed they are ... so many stems per bunch ... more than the supermarket offer.

Even cheaper if you grow them Shirley! lol

Rose, I now have 3 plants growing in the garden with one of them showing buds, hooray!

I thought it was a painting at first, just lovely.

Great Shirley, and every time you cut them for the house, more will grow!

Thank Janey, they look even better now than when first put in the vase.

Rose, I read somewhere that the stems should be pulled, as for rhubarb, rather than cut. Is that what you do?

Missed this one, Shirley. Lovely flowers at an equally lovely price!
Hope your planted ones flourish!

Thanks Kate, they are, without doubt, the best two bunches of flowers I have ever bought!

No Shirley, I just cut the flower right to the bottom, but don't pull it out.

Thanks Rose ... these indoor ones are still looking great!
