The Alstroemeria, also called the Peruvian Lily or Lily of the Incas originates in Peru, Chile, and Brazil. This gorgeous plant was discovered by a Swedish explorer in the 18th century and a man named Baron Von Alstroemer. This plant is used to convey the ideas of friendship, love, strength, devotion, and mutual support. Things like understanding, emotional bonding, stability, and perseverance also can be conveyed with this flower as well. Various color associations can be made with this flower as well. White can show love, strength, and support, yellow can show vibrancy and fun energy, pink and red can show romance, passion, and playfulness.
