heidi_pick_24

A wonderful dwarf alstroemeria with a clumping growth habit & glossy green strap-like foliage. In early summer, it produces 12�-15� stalks of large, striped, candy-colored azalea-like flowers with vibrant colors of red, deep rose & white with pink. �Dandy Candy� makes excellent long lasting cut flowers & also does well grown in containers. It needs afternoon summer shade & a moist, well-drained bed. In the ground, �Dandy Candy normally goes dormant in late summer but comes back lush & even fuller in the spring.
