Hi,

I would like some help in identifying the plant in the photos.

We bought it a few years ago, and it flowers from about June, and flowers for a long time. I really would like to buy some more, but need to know it's name. (unfortunately we can't find the tag)

Thanks

    Its an alstroemeria or Peruvian Lily

    I agree with Den246, an alstroemeria.  It's one of the longest lasting cut flowers you can have. Lovely plant.

    That looks like a brilliant specimen Dave1510 and you obviously have the right conditions and the relevant amount of green fingers for growing alstromerias. They are also very popular as a cut flower from the majority of supermarkets nowadays and as LesleyT mentions, normally last for at least a couple of weeks in a vase in the house.
