Alstroemeria Fortaleza

Fortaleza is a new large-flowered Alstroemeria that makes a cheerful impression immediately. Not just because of its festive - almost celebratory – red, orange and yellow colouring, but also because of its excellent quality and long life.

Both flowers and leaves last for an average of 17 days, according to a lifespan test carried out last year. Fortaleza also has a robust leaf that does not break easily and another unusual feature is the dark-green edge of the leaf which provides an even more attractive contrast with the spectacularly flamed flowers. The product has been selected as Fleur Primeur by the Aalsmeer branch of the FloraHolland auction. The flower has been available since June 2007. Its average weight is 45 to 70 grams; its length 80 cm. Alstroemeria Fortaleza is named after a city in Brazil. No wonder, as the Alstroemeria comes from South America originally.
