Alstroemeria pseudospatulata
(Repollito amarillo)

This alstroemeria is quite rare in Chile, it is found only in a small area of about 100 km2. It has beatiful yellow flowers, which, combined with the low height of the plant, make it an excellent potting plant. It needs soil with good drainage and is very hardy (where it lives, the snow cover lasts for up to 6 months). When transplanting, special care must be exercised, because, unlike other alstroemerias which tolerate transplanting without any problems, this alstroemeria has problems for regenerating damaged roots.

Alstroemeria revoluta
(Alstroemeria)

Alstroemeria revoluta has the smallest flowers in Chile which measure less then half the size of most other alstroemerias. Despite that it still is a very attractive plant, because the flowers are delicately pink-colored and the petals bent back give it a very peculiar look. It grows in relatively rich soils, can tolerate some shade and may not be very hardy. At least in Chile it grows in places where there is frost, but not snowcover.

Anemone moorei

This is one of the most rare plants in Chile. Currently, it is known to grow in one very restricted area with two locations. It has beautiful and big white flowers and grows like a small shrub. We have not tried out this plant yet, but it appears that it would need rich organic, somewhat acid soil, a lot of shade, quite a bit of watering, and frost and occasional snowfall seems not to be a problem.

It is relatively easy to cultivate and will reward you with a somewhat strange appearance and at the same time it will supply you with the edible fruits.
