My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
I have a couple of beautiful (& pricy) alstromeria varieties in my garden, and the house is going on the market soon. I've have no luck finding any info about dividing alstromeria. Anyone have any info they could share? THANK YOU!
Well, to my recollection (5 years?), they are bulbs and so you should be able to just lift them gently, divide and replant! I've dug mine up and moved them a few times and they've done wonderfully!
I am so proud of myself (pat, pat : ) ) as I overwintered two containers of them successfully and they are doing beautifully again this year. I bought them last year and divided one of them when I transplanted it to a bigger pot and potted the other one as it was to the bigger pot. I don't see a whole lot of difference in them this year, except that the divided one has more coverage around the container. It is not bigger, by any means, but just covers a bit more area.
Dividing them is quite easy. Gently dig up the entire root ball and you will see more like what I would describe as rhizomes. Carefully split them and replant. They are a bit on the fragile side but I planted up some pretty small pieces successfully. BTW, they were repotted when I first got them last June and then again in January, after the cats found them in the basement. I have them in 18" containers. In zone 3, needless to say, they will not overwinter and have to be container plants brought in at first frost.
