Anybody any experience with these bulbs? Do they grow good in lahore?
Its cousin, climbing Alstroemeria (Bomarea) grows well in hot climates i guess?

It is best to sow Peruvian lily just below the soil surface, with a spacing of 35 to 50 cm in the early spring. Peruvian lilies prefers full sunlight but can be grown in light shade. The soil should be well drained and humus rich; it is important that the soil is well broken and aired prior to planting. Alstroemeria requires between two weeks and a year to germinate. When growing indoors prior to planting out in the spring it is best to grow the plants for 7 to 9 weeks in peat pots. It is the most common cheapest flower in usa.
Bomarea on the other hand is hard to find. A nursery in Lahore has some.
