I have had my Alstromeria in a fairly large pot, 16", for a number or years. It was neglected for about a year and I have been trying to bring it back for the last 6 months with regular watering, good placement and the like. It has had VERY few blooms this spring and summer so I decided to divide it up. Inside the pot there was more soil than I expected and then a large quantity of plump tubers.

So, my question is, do I plant a few handfuls of the tubers into new soil or how does this work? There are very few CLUMPS of tubers, mostly loose tubers. They are nice and plump; soil was nicely damp.

I am in Northern California by the coast (Santa Cruz) and have this in a half day sunny location where it has done well previously.
